I compiled the kernel on a Lombard I have here, then moved the kernel (vmlinux) onto my pismo bootstrap partition. Initially yaboot.conf contained: image=hd:9,vmlinux label=install initrd=hd:9,ramdisk.image.gz initrd-size=8192 novideo However, on booting the kernel, I had some very pretty errors with the video (very, very surreal - looked like a CRT next to a big magnet). However, when I removed "novideo" flag it booted straight up! Any ideas Ben & co? Is this a known issue?
