Running ydl2 on a powerbook bronze/lombard and once a week
or so, the machine just crashes dead. The little green "i'm
sleeping" led flashes once, the keyboard stops responding, and
the machine shuts down.

This is a bit of a problem, but it's not as annoying as what
follows: subsequent reboots skip yaboot altogether and
boot immediately onto MacOS. The only way I've found to get
linux back it to reinstall the boot partition from the ydl
installation CD.

Is there any way to get yaboot back without reinstallation?

Thanks,
