ybin does nothing to OF that prevents `command option o f' from getting you an OF prompt, in fact it can't do anything to prevent this. you just need to hold these keys down while the machine boots, since there is a very short window for which it will be noticed. also if you have current ybin in potato you should be able to use ofpath to find the scsi device path. unless you have an unusal card that ofpath doesn't know about. make sure your really pressing command and option, many people think its control option, that won't work. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
