Hi Milan,
So the interesting question is this:
What do we have to do to tweak ofpath and make it handle properly all
(or some) of those other OF-aware controllers?
Can you help us on that?
Thanks!
Rick

Right. But it can also boot from an on-board SCSI, on-board SATA, and
any Firewire drive. Add-on SCSI, SATA, and ATA controllers must have
proper OpenFirmware support to be able to boot an OpenFirmware
machine.
