No, we actually got it working on the Blue G3 I had when I was at NASA.
The problem is that we rely too much on how exactly Open Firmware was set
up on that machine. It's different enough to mess us up on your machine.

Unfortunatly I'm not doing much macppc work at the moment, so I can't help
you too much. :-(

Take care,
