crap, this means there is a syntactical error in the bootscript... ill want you to try 0.27 (which will be out shortly) and if that still does not work ill need to see the ofboot.b on the bootstrap partition itself to make sure nothing strange is in it.. > I reckon it is because the CHRP script gives an error, and is therefore not > considered bootable. mac-boot will not show such errors it simply starts looking for other bootable devices. > > have you FULLY reset your OpenFirmware? > > Alt-Apple-P-R on the chime, hold 'till you listen to the second chime... from a cold boot? it won't work with a soft reboot, you must totally shutdown the machine and hold these keys while booting it. from the looks of your nvsetenv output your nvram is corrupted (mine looked like that after using the oldworld nvsetenv, it no longer has that garbage after doing a reset) in any event this may not be it given you seem to have a corrupted bootscript. > I have not yet done so. wait for 0.27, i am going to beg Dan to package that one, it will need testing. > I don't know if nvsetenv is new enough...

(yeah, 2.4.0-test9 with sound > compiled in oopses, and module is broken :/) i know of a Japenese guy with one of these machines (i think so anyway) who was having trouble with the output text not being displayed, but the script worked. 0.27 fixes the output problem -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
