Hi,
I am italian, so I'm sorry for my english and I am newbie Gentoo.
I want use Gentoo on PowerMac G5 and have followed the official Installation Guide but I cant boot my gentoo.

Below my situation

first HD:
/dev/sda1 apple-partition-map
/dev/sda2 apple-boostrap
/dev/sda3 swap
/dev/sda4 root

second HD:
/de/sdb1 apple-part-map
/devsdb2 apple-free-extra
/dev/sdb3 apple-hfs

when I run yabootconfig I have this errors:
ofpath: /proc/device-tree is broken .....
yabootconfig: unable to determine OpenFirmware device name to /dev/sda, aborting

So I have attempted the manual configuration and this is the resoult after reboot:

hd:2,/boot/vmlinuz: unknow or corrupted filesystem

How I can boot my Gentoo?

thank's in advance
