(Get the code!)
I ran into the same problem with hoary RC installer on a G5 system, I managed to
make it boot but it wasn't really painless:
the menu with the choice l for linux, x for macosx... isn't yaboot, it's still
openfirmware and the linux choice should run yaboot at least if it was working
I had to boot in rescue mode on the install CD, mount the newworld boot
partition and edit both the OF script and the yaboot.conf to change paths to the
hard drive.
I don't have acces to this system now (will have it back tomorow) but what I did
look like this:
the bootyaboot command in the OF script: changing
k2-sata-
k2-sata-
didn't solve the problem, I had to put
/ht@0,f2000000/
(the full path was avaible in the OF script in the bootmacosx command)
the autogenerated yaboot.conf had the same problem, putting the same
line in it finaly allowed me to boot to the second stage install
I hope this will help a bit...
PS:
of course there are two hard drives in this system, with macosx installed on the
first one, I didn't touch this disk, all linux related partitions (including the
newworld one) are on the second drive
