Hi all,
Just installed NetBSD 2.0 onto my Mac mini, but I can't get OF to boot it.
Partitions on the disk are
1 HFS+
2 UFS, /
3 swap
4 UFS, /usr
I put ofwboot.xcf onto the first (HFS+) partition.
I try to boot with
> boot hd:1,\ofwboot.xcf
but not matter what partition number i use (1-12), all I get is
MAC-PARTS: specified partition is not valid can't OPEN hd:1,\ofwboot.xcf
What's all that about?
