Thanks Dylan,

Thanks -- my OSX partition is on # 5, but I'll keep that ready if I need
it.

Actually my main problem is that I haven't been able to set up yaboot
yet -- for dual-boot I have to choose manual partitioning, but there
doesn't seem to be an option to create an Apple_bootstrap partition,
then when the installer comes to install yaboot it complains that
there's no Apple_bootstrap partition.

I've now done it by dropping into terminal and running mac-fdisk, and
I'll try a bit later and see if I can just boot from the CD and run
yabootconfig to set up yaboot.  Alternatively I might be able to re-run
the install and just accept the existing partitions (which are now
correct) and continue from there.

Anyway the real problem (maybe needing fixing) is that in manually
editing partitions there's no obvious way to create an Apple_bootstrap
partition.

Cheers,  Mike.
