Well, remember the Bondi has a lower RAM limit, probably 256, but you
might check on your model number to see if it's a Rev.A or Rev. B.
But yes, you'll want to update the firmware, otherwise you'll totally
destroy it trying to install OSX. We accidentally did this to a
Blueberry slot-loader. You can get the firmware update from the
Mactracker app. (Or you can get it from Apple I think)
