Re: Cannot boot 9.1 after OSX installation

2003-11-09 Thread Andreas
   Hi all!
  
   mount /dev/hda13 /mnt and
   chroot /mnt
   ybin -v
   ..
   After reboot no bootmanager again.
  
   I'm surprised ybin didn't complain about no /proc mounted.  Normally
   you
   need to mount /proc in the chroot also.   You wouldn't normally want
   to
   mount the bootstrap, if that's what you're referring to on hda11.

 Yes, Stew is right, you must mount your root partition AND /proc to the
 chroot if you want to run ybin (yaboot needs to access to the nvram to
 update the boot-device):

 boot in rescue from the CD
 $ mount /dev/hdaXX /mnt
 where XX is the partition number of /
 if /usr is on another partition, mount it too
 $ mount /dev/hdaYY /mnt/usr

 $ mount -t proc proc /mnt/proc
 to mount the /proc partition

 $ chroot mnt /usr/sbin/ybin -v

Is the right path

 (can't remember exactly where is ybin, I don't have my mac here at
 work).

 Send us the output of the last command if it failed.

 $ umount /mnt/proc
 $ umount /mnt/usr
 $ umount /mnt
 $ reboot

 I hope this will help you,

 Brice

Thanks Brice!

All works fine again.
