Hello,
I tried to boot Yaboot on an old ibook, however for some reason the DHCP
did not answer to the macintosh's dhcp query, so I booted from
Open-Firmware by giving directly the ips, like that :
boot enet:<server IP>,<file>,<my IP>;<subnet>,;<gateway IP>
So, I typed :
boot enet:192.168.0.25:yaboot:192.168.0.15;255.255.255.0,;192.168.0.1
And it seems yaboot couldn't find the yaboot.conf file. He tried to
search this location :
/pci at f4000000/ethernet:192.168.0.25,yaboot,192.168.0.15;255.255.255.0:-1,yaboot.conf
I guess the path is somewhat buggy so.. did I miss something?
