Back when 10.0 was in beta, there were issues with partitioning mac
drives with YaST.   You should be able to start a rescue system and
use "pdisk" to partition a MacOS drive if you need to(didn't know if
you knew that).

Then you will have to reboot and restart the install.

If you aren't familiar with MacOS partitioning, be careful.  You need
a 32MB ProDOS type partition for yaboot.

Anyway, I have a PowerMac G4/Digital Audio(466Mhz) & an iBook
G3/366Mhz.  Will try them out.

Overall, how do you find the current factory to run on the G5?
