Ok, answering my own question.
Of course it was a mistake of mine to format the /boot partition as
e2fs - it needed to be HFS - mkofboot told me that and a subsequent
ybin command ... uhmm ... rendered the machine unbootable in YDL 2
mode ... ok, sonce every good install takes at least 2 attempts (one
to find out what you can mess up and the second to get it right) I
re-installed, this time everything worked.
Now, all I need to do is port my Mac stuff over to Linux (ftp Mac ->
RH box, reboot Mac, ftp YDL <- RH box) ...
Humm ... humm ...
Good job, Terra Soft, but I think you need somebody to write a
propper installation manual. The 6 lines of how to install yaboot are
a little slim ...
Best regards,
Chris
