How wrong was I! you should only boot CDs by holding the C key. properly done ones will be configured to load a powermac yaboot that way. again debian does this properly. suse has a long history of keeping broken forks of yaboot and installing it wrongly. afaik they currently only care about expensive IBM machines, not apples. if you really dislike debian yellowdog is currently acceptable in thier use of yaboot, though not perfect. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
