Just boot from YDL CD and hit TAB at boot prompt, then Type "cd-linux
root=/dev/hdb12" (without the quotes-and hdb12 is just an example, just make
sure it is your root partion) then after linux boots, login and open a
terminal and run "/usr/sbin/ybin"
(without the qoutes) and then try rebooting computer and see if bootloader
runs...it should!
