What you need is the path to the drive in OF notation. If you start from /proc/device-tree, that is the OF root. Every directory and file under that matches the same node in the OF device tree. Start from there and search for your card. For example, the IDE channel in my PowerBook has a path that looks like this: /pci/mac-io/ata-3 Your SCSI card will probably be directly under one of the PCI channels, but I don't know where they are under your machine. On my 7600, the PCI slots where hidden under a node called "bandit", but most newer boxes have something called "pci" for the parent of the PCI slots. Once you find the path to your card, just substitute that in where you had "scsi" in your OF path before. You may want to take a look at some of Apple's documentation: "What is an Open Firmware devalias?" http://developer.apple.com/qa/hw/hw99.html "Fundamentals of Open Firmware, Part II: The Device Tree" http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn1062.html Brad Boyer [EMAIL PROTECTED]
