Rick,

> I'll send some suggestions off-line...

still hoping to get these...grin

Through the OpenFirmware...I've been aboe to get something like the DMSG
display.  When I ran 'printenv' it showed that 'boot-device' and 'boot-file'
were both empty.....I went here because the command "boot cd,/boot/yaboot"
came back with error:

can't OPEN:   cd

when I run a 'devalias', I can see that :

cd		/pci/mac-io/ide at 21000/disk at 0

So I tried:

setenv	boot-device		cd
setenv	boot-file		/boot/yaboot


but no luck what I tried the "mac-boot" command



Is she dead, Jim?
