i've tried booting an os9 boot cd, but it just flashes the disk+question mark icon. i'm using the version from testing. it does complain that drivers/blk.nw is missing, now that i've checked. i assume that's the blkdev emulator for newworld machines (like my ibook). that would explain why it won't even boot a cd. now the question is, why is blk.nm missing? -- Tom Vier <tmv@comcast.net> DSA Key ID 0xE6CB97DA
