  Not sure if this can be done: I did have a look once at
the OFW tree on my old iBook/airport, but didn't think there
was an "open" method that would allow booting.

  In any event, I haven't done the support for the 802.11b airport
(not as easy as I first thought), and as mentioned the specs aren't
available for the newer chipsets.

later,

Peter.
