"hd:10,yaboot" specifies a file called "yaboot" on the tenth partition of
the IDE drive. If you followed the procedure listed on the FAQ-o-matic
exactly, then that file should be there. If you didn't, then it's possible
that the partition number is different, e.g. hd:10 should be hd:11, or as
Ken wrote, the file name might be different, e.g. "yaboot.txbi" instead of
"yaboot."
The other possibility may be that your copy of yaboot is corrupted, but I
doubt that as it sounds like you were able to use it to run the installer.
