Hello all,

I just put a new BIOS version available for Mac PPC target.

http://site.voila.fr/jmayer/OpenHackWare/index.htm

Current status: 
* NetBSD booter loads but fails: some 
   needed OF methods are missing. 
* OpenBSD booter cannot run because it's a 
   gzipped ELF file. 
* Darwin 7.01 doesn't run: unknown or 
   miss-loaded file format. 
* Darwin 6.02 and OpenDarwin 6.6.1 seem
   not to like the OF tree as it's shown. 
* Darwin 1.41 & MacOS X 10.2 boot but fail
   to read the CDROM. 
* Linux debian woody, debian 3.0-r1, gentoo
   live CDROM, gentoo install CDROM, knopix
   and Mandrake 9.1 start: yaboot is loaded
   but fails to go on. 
* MacOS 9 and log restauration CDROMs
   claim they want Apple Copyright. 
* MacOS hw check CDROM won't boot for
   now. 

Still a lot of work to do, but this version may allow MacOS X boot
process debug. I just checked that OS X 10.2 starts and stops,
complaining it can't access the CDROM.

Waiting for reports, comments, suggestions...
