graph OF hangs - Please help

[Georg Koss <g.koss@eunet.at>]

Hi all!

I have a problem with the graphical OF-menu in new-world G4. The box
has two HD's, both with bootstrap ok if booting from the OF-prompt.

printenv boot-device gives:
ultra1:9,\\yaboot      hd:,\\:tbxi

I find two possible explanations: (which might be far away from beeing
true anyway :-/ )

1.) Would it be possible that hd:,\\:tbxi for the disk@0 containing
bootstrap on hda9 and macos tbxi on hda14 is causing the hang-up?

If so, is there any possibility to erase only hd:,\\:tbxi (without
using set-defaults, because I fear it returns to Apples defaults which
cause me to use the Apple-Restore CD for getting the better
resolution)

2.) I changed the original CD/DVD with a Plextor CD-RW. It is possible
to boot from the CD but takes a longer time. Maybe this drive
_irritates_ OF. If there is a bootable CD in this drive, the OF-setup
doesn't reach the step, where I get a button for the CD-drive.

If that's true, is there a chance to change this?

Thanks again for your patience!

Cheers
