I am somewhat surprised that nobody mentions the "Christmas Present" boot script by BenH (http://lists.linuxppc.org/listarcs/linuxppc-dev/199912/msg00191.html). I installed this on several iMac DVs, and it works great. Now you don't have to fiddle with OF any more, and if you put a timeout into yaboot.conf, booting into Linux is completely automatic.
Yes, this script is just great.
You only have to enter OF once, type setenv boot-device hd:10,yabootloader.script
I want exactly this automatic. This works fine on the current IDE Macs,
but with a B&W Scsi Mac a "typical" User has lost.
The path on my Mac is something like
/pci/pci-bridge/ADPT,2940U2B/@6:7,blah
Too complex.
