...been away from the ppc for a while, now i'm trying to, |
2 |
once again, get gentoo running. |
3 |
|
4 |
the new .iso works wonderfully. everything went well. |
5 |
|
6 |
but after modifying my /etc/yaboot.conf file, which looks ok, |
7 |
i can't seem to run ybin successfully. can anyone interpret |
8 |
these messages? do you know why i'm getting them? |
