Hi,

I just spent several hours figuring out that the ofwboot shipped with
4.7 apparently can't load bsd.rd from a freshly formatted HFS partition
(made from the OS X 10.4 rescue CD on a Power Mac G4).  I reverted to
the version in 4.0(!) which immediately worked.

I read that ofwboot was broken in this regard in 4.1 and 4.2, is it
possible it still hasn't been fixed yet?

Thanks,

It usually boots directly from the command line/forth/openfw.
No HFS partition.
