However, the same set of keys don't seem to work on Intel and I
can't find any docs on the Apple web site that tell me how to boot
to a firmware prompt. Is there a way?
This /is/ no firmware prompt on Intel-based Macintosh computers [1].
Or if not is there another way to retrieve a mistake of this sort?
Astonishingly, 'zapping the PRAM' still works and will get you out of
this sort of situation. Hold down command-option-P-R at startup
time. The same procedure works on your OF-based machine.
