Thanks Michael, always.
My question is: When this problem arises ?
OK:
OF 1/2 normal boot
netbsd.macppc CDROM boot (officially supplied iso fs)
boot.fs ( floppy disk)
OF 3 any situation
BAD:
OF 1/2
and
personally created media
and
MSDOS fs or ISO 9660 stuff or network boot
and
try to reading the file ofwboot.xcf at first
If above is true, is it clear by reading the above statement
quoted ?
(The condition stated is also true for the case with OK:, isn't it?.
I am afraid I'm the only guy can't read properly. )
