Hoary (PPC): ramdisk load failed! initrd.img:no such file or directory, after daily update

Sounds like your bootloader isn't as it should be.
Try the following: Repeat the steps until you mounted your linux
partition to mount, then execute these commands:
   mount -t proc none /mnt/proc
   chroot /mnt
   ybin
   exit
   umount /mnt
   reboot

Did that work?

(I had this error when I had a wrong /etc/yaboot.conf because I ran
yabootconfig instead of ybin, the first time. Did you ran yabootconfig
somewhen?)
