| 13:53.11 | teclo- | Hello, simple question: |
| 13:53.24 | teclo- | how can I tell yaboot that I have updated yaboot.conf |
| 13:53.32 | Bor_Ed | ybin -v |
| 13:53.36 | teclo- | and so that it has to go rewrite stuff on the blessed partition |
| 13:53.38 | teclo- | Bor_Ed: thank you |
| 13:53.46 | Bor_Ed | I recall... |
| 13:53.48 | Bor_Ed | no prob |
| 13:55.09 | teclo- | yep |
| 13:55.22 | teclo- | and if I had somethging wrong in yaboot.conf, I guess ybin would have yelled at me ? |
| 13:55.43 | teclo- | Out of curisoity, does ybin only write to the "blessed partition" or also into OpenFirware itself ? |
| 13:55.55 | Bor_Ed | yup, some whinetywhine about format or so |
| 13:56.05 | Bor_Ed | afaik, just to the partition |
| 14:03.07 | DelTree | if I understood right, the blessed partition plays the role of the boot sector itself... |

| 15:16.56 | teclo- | yes |
| 15:17.03 | teclo- | and it has to be 800K |
| 15:17.20 | teclo- | because 800K is the size of the original Apple HFS floppies |

| 15:18.31 | teclo- | oops |
| 15:19.19 | DelTree | I didn't know why 800K... |
| 15:20.07 | vasi | bootstrap can be any size |
| 15:20.21 | vasi | though the "same size as original floppies" theory is cute :-) |
| 15:20.28 | DelTree | vasi: mac_fdisk give little option... |
| 15:20.39 | DelTree | s/option/choice/ |
| 15:21.13 | vasi | i believe fedora used to create a 5MB bootstrap partition |
| 15:21.44 | vasi | anyhow, you can always use the "create with type" option in mac-fdisk if you really want a differently sized bootstrap partition |
| 15:21.53 | vasi | not that there's any reason why it should matter |
| 17:05.09 | teclo- | [root@ibook] 19:04 /usr/src/linux-2.6.20.6>make bzImage |
| 17:05.09 | teclo- | make: *** No rule to make target `bzImage'. Stop. |
| 17:05.28 | teclo- | ouch !!!??? |
| 17:05.39 | teclo- | perhaps make vmlinux on powerpc ? |
| 18:16.17 | DelTree | I guess vmlinux yes... |
| 19:20.15 | teclo- | ouch |
| 19:20.23 | teclo- | I've just built a 2.6.20.6 |
| 19:20.32 | teclo- | If I boot in console mode, no problem |
| 19:20.39 | teclo- | If I boot in kdm, I have the kdm login screen |
| 19:20.45 | teclo- | but when I do ctrl alt f1 or F2 |
| 19:20.54 | teclo- | I have nothing but a grey screen ! |
| 19:20.57 | teclo- | ouch, what is going on ? |
