Hi,
and this is my yaboot.conf :- timeout = 100 default = linux image = ultra1:10,/boot/vmlinux label = linux root = /dev/hdb10 append = "load_ramdisk=1 "
Remove append = "load_ramdisk=1, you do not need it.
It seems that I can get either os-chooser to be tbxi or yaboot to be tbxi but not both at the same time (is this what's supposed to happen?).
os-chooser should be tbxi. Try to rename it to "MacOS ROM".
understand them to be:- MacOs /dev/hda5 boot /dev/hdb8 root /dev/hdb10 swap /dev/hdb9
Are you sure you have 2 hard drives (judging from partition numbers I suspect not)? hdb is second ide drive. if not, you should correct your partition numbers in yaboot.conf and lilo.conf.
I'm using a blue & white G3 with MacOs 8.6 Should I be using bootx? is that even possible on a ppc? any help with this would be much appreciated .
No, only yaboot. PS.
