Re: S900 booting via quik



I hope you didn't put the whole patch in as I think that patch is
very specific to apple's powermacs' video hardware and OF version
1.0.5 only.  If you put in just the wBoot part, well, I don't know. 
But you should set your nvramrc back to null, or set the
`usenvramrc' variable to `no'.  Then try the boot command specified
in the the man page for nvsetenv.
