Mandrake PPC? And that the Open Firmware would go to the blessed partition
then get redirected to the /boot where yaboot exists? I'm thinking I'm way

Hmmm maybe I'm too tired to be doing this... I didn't do the chroot /mnt
"correctly" the first time and so my lack of a yaboot wasn't really
accurate. Sorry. Anyway, once I discovered this I (correctly) went to the

Would it be too much trouble to explain to me the problem, what i2c is,
and so on? I'm very new, and would appreciate all the info I can get.
I've been doing the Microsoft thing way too long.
Also, is there anyt
Okay, here's what I've discovered. Booted to rescue mode, did the chroot and
I have NO yaboot.conf in my /etc/ directory! It would appear that I don't
have a valid boot loader installed at all. I haven't been able to find a way

Ahh - i2c

or disable the i2c driver

I’ve tried to read through the archives, but, unfortunately, most of the
explanations didn’t help because I don’t know what I’m
