Use nvsetenv: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rpm -qf `which nvsetenv` pmac-utils-1.1.1-1b -- on my LinuxPPC box. nvsetenv boot-device "/AAPL,ROM" and on next reboot you go into MacOS. From MacOS, use your existing tools (if any) or bootvars to reset boot-device and boot-file back to what you need for Linux.
