I just updated to Beta-1, bravely I allowed auto-configuration too! Now things
are rather better:

System still boots to OS-X without offering a boot menu, unless ALT is held
down to force one.

Then two indistinguishable Linux (i.e. penguin marked) icons are offered, along
with a third for OS-X (the default)

Selecting teh left Linux one leads to a yaboot prompt, with 2 images offered
for boot "linux" and "Linux". Both fail to load, the former reporting 'unable
to parse @0...' and teh latter 'invalid device'

Selecting the rightmost boot-menu icon however successfully boots Linux!

Not sure what info I can give to help fix this final (?) problem?
