I rebooted the computer while holding down the ALT-OPTION key. The system booted into Mac OS X. The machine has 2 hard drives, an IDE 6 Gig Mac OS X drive and a 2 Gig Mac OS 9.2.2 SCSI Drive. Both drives are 100% bootable. To go from Mac OS X to 9.2.2 I have to use the "Startup-Disk" control panel. To go from Mac OS 9.2.2 to Mac OS X I can use the "Startup-disk" utility or hold down the "X" key while booting.
My problem;
How he heck can I tell if this is an Open Firmware machine. I would like to call up the Open Firmware prompt to select my Operating System.
This is not a big deal, I boot into 9.2.2 about twice a month.
