Uhm, this is a different error. This error is a problem with the firewire
drive, isn't it? That's not really a problem with ofwboot.xcf, as that's
the NetBSD kernel complaining about things.

It still needs fixing, but since I know less about firewire than you do, I
can't really help too much. :-)

Take care,
