this probably isn't it given the above gibberish, but try adding
PowerBook3,1 to the <COMPATIBLE> line below. 

if that does not work try loading this script directly (or just load
yaboot directly) like so:

boot ultra0:10,ofboot.b (or whatever its called)

or 

boot ultra0:10,yaboot  <-- this one should work if not something is
really borked.
