f7 yaboot problem on G3
by Mike Hammill
Could someone provide me with a reasonable yaboot.conf file or tell me
how to make one to get f7 to boot on a G3?
Background:
I've been running fc6 on a Mac G3 (blue and white) and earlier version
of fc before that. I really like it and decided to upgrade to f7. I
used the clean install option (nothing else on the hard drive) from the
DVD and the installation went fine.
Originally, I choose the default layout, which seems to put nearly
everything under LVM. I couldn't boot that, and I figured yaboot
couldn't handle LVM. So, I started over from scratch and put reasonable
things on LVM, the rest on their own partitions, namely:
/dev/sda3 /boot ext2 120M
/dev/sda4 /var/cache/openafs ext2 2048M
/dev/sda5 / ext3 2048M
/dev/sda6 swap 1024M
/dev/sda7 LVM where
/dev/vg/home 5120M mounted under /home
/dev/vg/opt 2048M mounted as expected...
/dev/vg/tmp 2048M ...
/dev/vg/usr 10240M ...
/dev/vg/var 5120M ...
/dev/vg/userlocal 1024M ...
This also installed fine, and f7 seemed to create /dev/sda2 as an Apple
bootstrap partition. However, when rebooting, I got the broken folder
icon and the best I can do was reboot to the rescue disk. Rescue did a
great job, found my f7 installation, mounted all the above (except
openafs partition) and I then chrooted to /mnt/sysimage. There, I have
tried various incantations to install the boot image to the bootstrap
partition, but nothing works.
Is one to do it from outside chroot, e.g.,
yabootconfig -t /mnt/sysimage -b /dev/sda2
or inside using ybin -v or only use mkofboot?
I hate to say it, but the closest success I got was booting with
Gentoo's CD, mounting everything, running yabootconfig and then on
reboot it at least boots f7's initrd and vmlinuz (however it kernel
panics). Using only f7's rescue disk, I tried, after letting rescue
find the installation, the following. Note here I did NOT chroot first:
Try 1:
yabootconfig --chroot /mnt/sysimage
Got:
Unable to locate bootstrap parition on /dev/sda...
Try 2:
yabootconfig --chroot /mnt/sysimage -b /dev/sda2
Got:
Install yaboot bootstrap on /dev/sda2 to boot Linux from /dev/sda5?
[Yes]
Creating a simple /mnt/sysimage/etc/yaboot.config...
Enter kernel image: /mnt/sysimage/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7
Enter an initrd image: /mnt/sysimage/boot/initrd-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7.img
/mnt/sysimage/sbin/yabootconf: line 733: ofpath: command not found
yabootconfig: unable to determine OpenFirmware device name to /dev/sda
aborting.
Try 3:
PATH_PREFIX=/mnt/sysimage yabootconfig --chroot /mnt/sysimage
-b /dev/sda2
Got: same as above except it got a little further. After entering the
initrd, it gave:
Running mkofboot to make the disk bootable...
Failed to initialize HFS working directories: No such file or directory
mkofboot: /dev/sda2 appears to have never had a bootstrap installed,
please run mkofboot.
I'd like to not give up on f7, but the above is pretty frustrating.
Best regards,
/Mike

No, it's understandable.
Can you talk about that?
It's amazing, I love it.
Nick sculpted each frame for the original film.
That's amazing to have that moment. We wanted to keep it upbeat and fun.
He came in every single day we recorded. We wanted to keep it very
celebratory, very present tense.
How long have you been married to him now?
How involved were you with each aspect of the production, including the
DVD?
Disney would like an audience with me at Disney studios.
Jennifer Lee Pryor is Richard's "white honky bitch. Definitely one of
the best parts in the DVD. When that's Jamie Foxx, there's a line that
he stole from Richard.
Herbie's similar to the Little Train That Could and I drew a similarity
between them as Herbie being the Little Car That Could.
What being true to yourself, knowing to stand your ground and being
brave; let the light in. What drew you to him? I think he definitely is
aware of that and I think that's very comforting. Little did she know
that harmonizing "Sing Sweet Nightingale" and crooning "So This Is Love"
in a small studio as a favor would turn into a person casting call from
Mr. ' You talk about Herbie's personality in the bonus features. " How
do you think he can laugh at himself through all the pain that most
people wouldn't even survive? That's just making reference to how we
really wanted to make it not a eulogy. But also we didn't know how to do
it very well; we certainly messed the first marriage up.
Even so, we hope you'll enjoy them.
It was through that period. Even so, we hope you'll enjoy them. Disney
would like an audience with me at Disney studios.
And I think it's just a real easy step to want your car to be your
friend, but I think I kind of like the magical premise that everybody
can really relate to. I love how the new series stays true to the
original "Creature Comforts" short.
I didn't expect it to become a career, but I was always a fan of Bugs
Bunny, Tom and Jerry, quirky British children's animation, as well as
the more 'art-house' stuff I saw while at college.
' So that was a magical time when that happened because I had never
heard one voice singing harmony with herself. And he ran away from it
for quite a while. It would be on our mind that we weren't the same
color. We were really isolated, you know, we lied, there were
misconceptions and celebrity, boy I tell you, that's when celebrity just
came like a tidal wave with all the bad stuff, you know.
Finally, the big question: at what age did you learn to spell your last
name correctly? Extreme laughter and tears cause what they were saying,
you know, they came with such love in their hearts. It's much more fun
than making plastic bags, which I did for a while. com is a Trademark of
Kleinman.
She accepted life as it was and went after things she wanted. He was a
man I just knew I was going to come into myself with him and he would
help me and teach me and hopefully we would teach each other and I think
that that is true. There are good days and bad days. JP: Well it only
came out once.
JP: Oh, well give them my love.
It was wonderful and wonderful working with Walt and all of the
beautiful artists.
Yeah, I heard he was married seven times.
When I started working on the movie I knew I would never meet anybody
like him again. I mean, that's what's so amazing.
He'll take on like any pit bull or masculine dog.
What kind of dog do you have?
I think that it was just getting up there and the explosion of the pain
and the comedy was what thrilled him.
AR: Yeah totally, totally. There were a couple moments where I was like,
"Yeah, motherfucker! For the past two decades, Aardman Animation has
thrilled audiences young and old with a top-notch resume of claymation
shorts and feature films.
Now everyone always asks how he's doing, but I want to know how you are.
I wanted the movie to have a lot of heart so that it was incredibly
silly and funny, but that there were also real things at stake, that you
didn't really want her to betray Herbie.
"You sit down, he's standing up.

No sound on PowerPC Mac Mini after upgrading from fc6 to Fedora7
by Peter Lemenkov
Hello All!
I tried to modprode snd-aoa, to rmmod snd-powermac and vice versa, to
rename any snd-powermac in /etc/modprobe to snd-aoa, to start kudzu,
to stop kudzu but with zero success. Then I did ls /dev/snd I saw only
seq and timer.
Ok, I gave up - I have no idea how to enable sound after upgrading
from FC6 to F7. Could anyone powerpc-guru point me out what should I
try?
