yaboot second stage bootloader fails on PowerMac G4
I hope I'm not posting too much here. I've read a lot of solutions to similar problems but I can't seem to work those solutions into my own problem. Here's the details:
I have a PowerMac G4. It has a 30GB drive partioned like this: hda2 as the boot partition, hda3 as the root and hda4 as the swap. hda2 is NewWorld hfs, hda3 is ext3 with Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron, hda4 is swap. It gets as far as starting to load the second stage bootloader and stops. If it helps any I've posted both the yaboot.conf and ofboot.b contents on hda2 below. I appreciate any suggestions you might have for me. Here's the contents of yaboot.conf: boot=/dev/hda2 ofboot=/pci@f2000000/mac-io@17/ata-4@1f000/disk@0:2: partition=3 root=/dev/hda3 timeout=30 install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot image=/boot/vmlinux label=Linux read-only And here are the contents of ofboot.b: <CHRP-BOOT> <COMPATIBLE> MacRISC MacRISC3 MacRISC4 </COMPATIBLE> <DESCRIPTION> PowerPC GNU/Linux First Stage Bootstrap </DESCRIPTION> <BOOT-SCRIPT> : .printf fb8-write drop ; : bootyaboot " Loading second stage bootstrap..." .printf 100 ms load-base release-load-area " /pci@f2000000/mac-io@17/ata-4@1f000/disk@0:2:,\\yaboot" $boot ; " screen" output variable interactive 0 interactive ! 0 interactive @ = if bootyaboot then dev screen " "(0000000000aa00aa0000aaaaaa0000aa00aaaa5500aaaaaa)" drop 0 7 set-colors " "(5555555555ff55ff5555ffffff5555ff55ffffff55ffffff)" drop 8 15 set-colors device-end f to foreground-color 0 to background-color " "(0C)" .printf " First Stage Ubuntu Bootstrap"(0d 0a)" .printf " "(0d 0a)" .printf " Press l for GNU/Linux."(0d 0a)" .printf " "(0d 0a)" .printf " Stage 1 Boot: " .printf get-msecs d# 3 3E8 * + begin key? if key case ascii l of " l "(0d 0a)" .printf bootyaboot endof endcase then dup get-msecs < until drop " "(0d 0a)" .printf bootyaboot </BOOT-SCRIPT> <OS-BADGE-ICONS> 1010 000000000000F8FEACF6000000000000 0000000000F5FFFFFEFEF50000000000 00000000002BFAFEFAFCF70000000000 0000000000F65D5857812B0000000000 0000000000F5350B2F88560000000000 0000000000F6335708F8FE0000000000 00000000005600F600F5FD8100000000 00000000F9F8000000F5FAFFF8000000 000000008100F5F50000F6FEFE000000 000000F8F700F500F50000FCFFF70000 00000088F70000F50000F5FCFF2B0000 0000002F582A00F5000008ADE02C0000 00090B0A35A62B0000002D3B350A0000 000A0A0B0B3BF60000505E0B0A0B0A00 002E350B0B2F87FAFCF45F0B2E090000 00000007335FF82BF72B575907000000 000000000000ACFFFF81000000000000 000000000081FFFFFFFF810000000000 0000000000FBFFFFFFFFAC0000000000 000000000081DFDFDFFFFB0000000000 000000000081DD5F83FFFD0000000000 000000000081DDDF5EACFF0000000000 0000000000FDF981F981FFFF00000000 00000000FFACF9F9F981FFFFAC000000 00000000FFF98181F9F981FFFF000000 000000ACACF981F981F9F9FFFFAC0000 000000FFACF9F981F9F981FFFFFB0000 00000083DFFBF981F9F95EFFFFFC0000 005F5F5FDDFFFBF9F9F983DDDD5F0000 005F5F5F5FDD81F9F9E7DF5F5F5F5F00 0083DD5F5F83FFFFFFFFDF5F835F0000 000000FBDDDFACFBACFBDFDFFB000000 000000000000FFFFFFFF000000000000 0000000000FFFFFFFFFFFF0000000000 0000000000FFFFFFFFFFFF0000000000 0000000000FFFFFFFFFFFF0000000000 0000000000FFFFFFFFFFFF0000000000 0000000000FFFFFFFFFFFF0000000000 0000000000FFFFFFFFFFFFFF00000000 00000000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF000000 00000000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF000000 000000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF0000 000000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF0000 000000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF0000 00FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF0000 00FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF00 00FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF0000 000000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF000000 </OS-BADGE-ICONS> </CHRP-BOOT> |
Hey, I fixed! Dumped Ubooboo for a better distro - Fedora!
