After installing Gentoo and rebooting, yaboot will say the following message

/ht@0,f2000000/pci@5/k2-sata-root@c/k2-sata@1/disk@0:4, /vmlinux: No such
file or directory

Thing is, the /boot partition (sda4) HAS a vmlinux file, does exist, and is
a proper filesystem (ext2) that should be readable by yaboot.

The partitions mounted
/dev/sda5 on /mnt/gentoo type jfs (rw)
/dev/sda4 on /mnt/gentoo/boot type ext2 (rw)

The yaboot.conf file
## yaboot.conf generated by yabootconfig 1.0.8
##
## run: "man yaboot.conf" for details. Do not make changes until you have!!
##
## For a dual-boot menu, add one or more of:
## bsd=/dev/hdaX, macos=/dev/hdaY, macosx=/dev/hdaZ

boot=/dev/sda2
device=/ht@0,f2000000/pci@7/k2-sata-root@c/k2-sata@0/disk@0:
partition=4

install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot

image=/vmlinux
