Would someone in the know be so kind to answer the following:

with  OF version >=2.4 there's no need for a bootxx program - ofwboot.elf
can be read by the OF directly. True ? False?

If true: How is it done?
 Is it done thru the same mechanism as with bootxx - i.e an apple partition
map is written to disk telling OF where the boot code ( in this case
ofwboot.elf) is ?
Or the OF v >=2.4 is smart enough to figure out what to do when you say

" boot sd@0/ofwboot.elf " ?

And: Is there still a need for the apple partition map in the NetBSD disk
If yes, why?



Thx Andy
