The latter. The "troubleshooting" section of the documention doesn't address it at all, though earlier mentions this might happen. Does that mean it's a known problem with no resolution? OS X _is_ on the target partition already, from an earlier attempt. I just can't boot to it. I was hoping XPF would help get around my Open Firmware problems. Do I need to have OS 9 installed on the target partition? I don't see how putting a copy of BootX on a volume I can't boot from will be any help whatsoever.
