I'm having a boot problem with FC5 on PPC. The installation on my
titanium Powerbook went off without a hitch, but when the system boots
all I get is the little Mac folder with the flashing question mark.
Holding down option, which would allow me to choose my boot device, only
shows me the CD as an option. To try and fix this, I have done the
following:
1. Verified yaboot.conf is correct and run ybin.
2. Ran yabootconfig to create a new yaboot.conf.
Neither of those things has fixed the problem. Here is some config
information:
Using /dev/hda

Can anyone help?
