That's not worked either. devalias tells me that ide0 is set to /pci/mac-io/[EMAIL PROTECTED] so I do...
setenv boot-device ide0/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:9 then try booting by typing "boot" but it give a similar error... typing in the whole path does me no good either.... Question, if I can eventually use quik, do I need the Mac OS installed?
