Shouldn't matter what you call it, as long as you tell yaboot the same name. // image=/vmlinux-2.6.15-rc5.ydl.1       label=linux       read-only       initrd=/initrd-2.6.15-rc5.ydl.1.img       root=/dev/hda4       append="rhgb quiet" image=/boot/vmlinux-2.6.17.7       label=audio-linux       read-only       initrd=/initrd-2.6.15-rc5.ydl.1.img       root=/dev/hda4       append="rhgb quiet" Aha!  Things have changed from the old days.  Aparently the "partition=6" line is telling yaboot to look for the boot files on partition 6 (hence the hda0,6 portion of the error message you were receiving). Try removing the "boot" from the second section.  In other words:   image=/vmlinux-2.6.17.7         label=audio-linux         read-only         initrd=/initrd-2.6.15-rc5.ydl.1.img         root=/dev/hda4         append="rhgb quiet" Hopefully, that will do the trick. -J Jason, Derrick Many thanks for your prompt replies. Jason, I edited as above and now I get pass the first stage of booting but booting fails at the second stage: ramdisk loaded at 01c00000, size 1326 bytes Invalid memory access at πSRR0: 014080 e4 πSRR1: 00083030 Apple Powerbook6,8 4.90f0 Boot ROM built on 01/10/05 at 10:39:14 "etc.etc" To continue booting, type "mac-boot" and press return To shut down, type "shut-down" and press return ok, 0 > _ If I type "mac-boot" I come back to the "Invalid memory access" message.
