Hopefully someone else answered. If not... The best thing would be to go through the boot-floppies sources. What you want is the miboot stuff -- most of the logic for that is in powerpc-specials/ subdir. Sorry I don't have time to explain it in depth to you, and that we don't really have heavy documentation internally for this. -- ...Adam Di Carlo..<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>...<URL:http://www.onshored.com/>
