Well, see you sent lots of mails on that bug report. So I guess that this
should be fixed soon. I'm only sad Ethan doesn't like to have stuff included
in yaboot 1, it really need new features.

Hmm? The code being patched says you can't do it because the
buffer is to small, what is it you can do? btw pegasos that's the
Amiga right?
Well my bugreport really wasn't about this, it was about getting
netbooting to work, it was anoying that the manual said it was more
or less like booting an ordinary machine but it's not. I'm guessing
it's alot morecommon to try to boot Macs than other CHRP platforms,
so it would be nice to have in the manual
So my question is how can I do this? Where is the source for the
manual.
