It looks like your OFW doesn't want to load a little endian grub2 
binary. What a shame.

But I bet you already have a working yaboot setup on that system, right? 
Could you please copy the "linux" and "initrd" files from the 
installation media into your yaboot boot partition and add entries for 
them in yaboot.conf?

Maybe you also need to replace the yaboot binary with one that can load 
little endian kernels. Fortunately the iso you downloaded earlier did 
have such a yaboot on it, so you can just grab it from there :).
