...been away from the ppc for a while, now i'm trying to,
once again, get gentoo running.
the new .iso works wonderfully. everything went well.
but after modifying my /etc/yaboot.conf file, which looks ok,
i can't seem to run ybin successfully. can anyone interpret
these messages? do you know why i'm getting them?
# ybin -v --debug
ybin: Finding OpenFirmware device path to `/dev/hda9'...
ybin: DEBUG: ofboot set to `hd:9'
ybin: Finding OpenFirmware device path to `/dev/hda10'...

ybin: An error occured while writing to /dev/hda9
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
here's my yaboot.conf file (changing things here doesn't seem to affect the error much):
boot=/dev/hda9
default=linuxppc
device=hd:
partition=12
delay=5
defaultos=linux
timeout=40
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot
image=/boot/vmlinux
root=/dev/hda12
label=linuxppc
read-only
macos=/dev/hda10
enablecdboot
enableofboot
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
file system layout:
# mac-fdisk -l

/dev/hda9 Apple_Bootstrap untitled ... 1 M NewWorld bootblock
/dev/hda10 Apple_HFS untitled 2 ... 10.4 G HFS
[the following partitions now use the xfs filesystem]

any ideas/suggestions/help/comments would be appreciated !
