Thanks for the clarification.
It'll be a couple of days before I can try a reinstall. I'm
hoping the problem that caused 5.0-RELEASE to trash all of my
disklabels has been fixed. That wasn't a pleasant 3.5 hours
figuring out how to get my data back...
Sean

Not really - the two mods I made (in the one on the website) were to sync
the i-cache after the load (maybe not needed) and to modify the CD9660
code
so it could read hybrid-HFS formatted CDs, which OpenFirmware requires.
You should be able to net-boot fine with the loader from the tree.

Yes, that may get you going faster.

Peter.
