1ghz eMac - the old CRT model, but the eMac is larger (has a larger screen) than the CRT iMac.
I think it's a G4, it's 32-bit.
Tentatively speaking, I think I'm on the right track, actually.
Having made a final second-guessing-myself attempt with Finnix, it seems like the yabootconfig isn't working, but it looks like it's gonna boot using the manual Yaboot configuration. IMO this is explained a little poorly in the docs (but it is a niche arch, so I'm not complaining).
I hadn't posted back before because it looks like yaboot doesn't support ext3, so I'm now having to go back and make a separate /boot partition.
I believe this is my first time installing on PPC - I may have done it before, but if so I remember none of the details - and the quirks are all a bit unfamiliar to me.
Stroller.
