The second ways is by following the instructions at this web site:

http://penguinppc.org/bootloaders/yaboot/doc/yaboot-howto.shtml/ch9.en.shtml

under the title "9.2 Loading Yaboot". I strt my machine and hold the Command-Option-o-f keys and the open firmware screen appears at the prompt I enter:

0 > boot hd:2,yaboot

and yellowdog linux starts.

BUT I dont want to have to do this everytime to use linux, I had yaboot set up and now it is gone. Is there anything I can do to get yaboot running again so I can choose which OS to boot each time I start up?

Thanks for reading.


You should be able to straighten things out by simply running 'ybin' (as root) once you are booted into YDL. If your 'yaboot.conf' file is set up properly, this should reset the OF to recognize yaboot on the bootstrap partition first.

cheers, g'luck and all that stuff
