ybin isn't needed on the powerstation iirc. Anyway, that is

We should have Tony take a look at this if possible. Or if David can remeber
how to do a netboot directly from OF (and skipping yaboot), that would be a
good test too.
/usr/sbin/wrapper -o zImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.ppc64 \
-i /boot/initrd-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.ppc64.img
Give resulting zImage to OpenFirmware.
Various versions of OF have different bugs with that (image size, etc.)
but I think the PowerStation ought to be fine.
You could also try using kexec -- that should help eliminate yaboot bugs
too.
