I found the script to alter boot-floppies. My oldworld powerbook (wallstreet) now boots. But it would be nice to get it booting off the internal internal drive. When I do ofpath from Linux, it says /pci/mac-io/ata0/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2 for the device path of /dev/hda2, my root partition, but that is not working as a boot device from OF. I've tried manually exploring the device tree, and it seems like that device path just does not exist there to OF (ver. 2.0.1, btw). For example, I do a 'dev /pci/mac-io/ata0', then I ls that, and only /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 are there. pwd shows I'm on the pci bus: /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 So, there seems to be a discrepancy between what the kernel is seeing and what OF is telling me it sees. Anyone, any experience with something like this? The previous owner couldn't get it to boot macos even. Perhaps this was a problem that was fixed by patches to the nvram which got zapped by a dead internal (pram) battery? Thanks, Jim
