Actually you're more right than you know. Jeremy had a tough time because
of this typo:
If the miniroot was installed on partition 'b' of the disk with
SCSI target ID=0 then the PROM boot command would be:
>b sd(0,0,1) -s
With SCSI target ID=2, the the PROM is:
>b sd(0,10,1) -s
That second example should have read:
>b sd(0,8,1) -s
