This is driving me crazy! I got NetBSD/macppc 3.0.1 installed using  
the boot floppies and the CD on my PowerBook 2400. After the  
installation completed, I rebooted and now I am trying to figure out  
what the correct Open Firmware boot-file syntax is. I figured out  
that the correct boot-device is:

/bandit/ohare/ata/ata-disk@0:0

I have tried a bunch of boot-file commands like:

/bandit/ohare/ata/ata/disk@0:0,\netbsd
/bandit/ohare/ata/ata/disk@0:1,\netbsd
/bandit/ohare/ata/ata/disk@0:2,\netbsd
etc.

And:

/bandit/ohare/ata/ata/disk@0:0,/netbsd
etc.

Does anyone have a 2400 or 3400 that they are booting from the  
internal hd with? I would greatly appreciate your boot syntax! Thank  
you.
