this happened to me too - when i first installed ubuntu yaboot only had
the option for the cd rom and linux, no osx partition. i'm a new to
linux but here's the method i used to get the osx partition to show up
and work with yaboot when i started my ibook:
1. boot into Linux & open a terminal
2. type 'sudo yabootconfig' - this seemed to overwrite the
yaboot.conf file that the install disk installed (i think, correct me
here if wrong)
3. type 'sudo pico /etc/yaboot.conf'
4. add the line:
macosx=/dev/hda4
(or /dev/... wherever your bootable osx partition is)
5. save the changes (ctrl+x + Y)
6. type 'sudo ybin'
7. reboot
