Hi Barry, |
14 |
Interesting idea. I hadn't considered that possibility as the early |
15 |
part of the boot, where I have the printk times for each step, clearly |
16 |
shows it as hda. However then in the init stages the system starts |
17 |
udev. Maybe that changes the name. |

With yaboot is there a way to edit the command line at boot time |
20 |
like there is with grub? I'm having a hard time because the Mac Mini |
21 |
seems to be dimming my monitor and I cannot read what's happening |
22 |
right before boot! |

|

I suppose I can edit the yaboot config file if necessary. |

Thanks, |
