No, only the "wBoot" part. I'm not concerned with getting to the firmware
via the keyboard & monitor - it's easier for me to have OF on the modem
port.
But I'm trying the line from the nvsetenv manpage... but all I'm getting
is:
can't OPEN: /bandit/gc/mesh/sd@4:0
RESETing SCSI bus
RESETing SCSI bus
which repeated about 7 times before hanging. After cycling the power, it
reset the SCSI bus a couple more times before giving me the familiar
"DEFAULT CATCH!" error.
I hope this logic board isn't going south.
I wonder how hard it'll be to get miBoot working, as hideous as it is...
Thanks for the help, though :)
