No luck :(  (BTW, there was a typo in the previous mail; it's cd, not
cd0.)

The thing is that it seems to access the hard disk (I can hear it), but
it always results in no such file or directory.  May this be because I
used FFSv2?  Is it there any way to ensure that the partition accessed
is the correct one from within openfirmware? (pdisk says 2 is my root
partition.)

Thanks,
