Does not work on my Beige
I should have mentioned in the previous message that, in Apple's own words, the new Macs are called new world machines vs. old world machines, referring to changes in the capabilities of Open Firmware.
"Oh brave new world ... that has such people in it!"
not exactly
you are very well probably right in your first reply (i dont have a newer machine to test this on), but the ability to hold option to choose the startup disc is not what makes a new world machine. my imac 333 is a new world machine, and i cannot hold option to choose the startup disc. a new world machine is one in which the boot up rom is stored on the hard drive as opposed to on a rom chip on the logic board
not exactly
Thanks for the info. My memory is getting approximate these days...
lol
i hear ya, i wouldnt have known that if i hadnt recently looked into linux boot loaders |
