You can get into OF with cmd-opt-O-F at boot. boot /APPL,ROM or something along those lines will get you to MacOS (you can also reset the PRAM with cmd-opt-P-R, but you'll have to manually restore boot via quik). You can probably also try to halt quik by pressing a key fast enough I suppose... not sure. I don't remember too well. If you get to MacOS, BootX is the simplest way to go back to Linux.
