It was working fine before and now this is happening? I'd try re-installing the bootloader and see if that helps ... (insert YDL DVD and use "Install OtherOS" from the XMB, remove the DVD, and boot to Other OS)

Instead of typing - what happens if you use the TAB key? You should see the options in your /etc/yaboot.conf file. (i.e. ydl 720p). If you don't - that may mean there's bigger issues.

Cheers,

You could download it from here:

ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/ydl/relea ... theros.bld

And put it on a memory card or FAT32 formatted USB drive in this location:

/PS3/otheros/otheros.bld

Then run "Install OtherOS" with the card inserted ...
