Do you have yaboot 1.2.1? Its buggy, use the old one if you have the kernel on the ext2 partition.
I took yaboot with reiserfs support from suse reiserfs boot cd image. I do not know which is this version. It worked well if both /root and /boot have been on the same reiserfs partition. I will reformat my HD again, no problem. PS. BTW, XFree 4.02 and sax2 from SuSE 7.1 does not work on iBook FW Indigo, summer 2000 model. Reverting back to 4.01 from SuSE 7.0 solved problem. Waiting for XFree 4.1 PPC... ******************************************************** * Best Regards --- Andrei Verovski * * e-mail --- andrei.verovski@bigfoot.com * * * * Personal Home Page * * http://homepage.mac.com/macgurutemple/ * ********************************************************
