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...

I'll use the one from your >website, then. 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. >Maybe I should go ahead and wipe >it out and reinstall using 5.1-RELEASE. Then I can update >right away... Yes, that may get you going faster. later, Peter. >
