Try
nvsetenv /pci/mac-io/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0
when i tried this command it gave me variable not called error. I tried
nvsetenv boot-device /pci/mac-io/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0 this did not give me
the error but when I reboot I am getting
can't open: /pci/mac-io/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0 error on a white screen (i
am guessing the OF screen?)
also do I need to setup another variable I found in some documentation on
the web that says boot-file?
thank you

If you get a boot: prompt, try typing Linux in response.
