Me too. =) I finally got around to backing up all of my data off of my
Mac...

Again, me too. :( When I boot my Mac again, it gives me the disk icon
with the question mark. I've tried using both the serial console and
screen/kbd but to no avail. I've tried 'wd0' and
'/bandit/ohare/ATA/ATA-Disk' and neither worked at all, just gave me the
question disk icon.
What I don't understand is how you are _supposed_ to boot it. The install
docs and FAQ are _extremely_ vague in that area.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
