Mmm, probably, probably means patching yaboot, let me check. ... is hardcoded
in yaboot. That said, we need to fix yaboot some, so we could search for
either yaboot.conf or yaboot.cnf or something such.

Also, i was told that maybe -l would be enough, or -iso-level 2. Can you try
both of them ? 

Not sure if you can include a custom yaboot binary on the CDs, which replace
yaboot.conf -> yaboot.cnf in second/yaboot.c ? 

Friendly,

Sven Luther
