I don't remember which PROM version it is, and I can't check at the
moment because I don't have any kind of console here. I didn't bother
carrying the monitor and I have yet to locate an adapter that will fit
the serial port. But throwing a randow guess, I'd say 2.3 or 2.4.

My experiences are with bootffs, dunno if that really matters.
