Oh yeah, on Darwin 8, the Boot Device property is preferred because
it's impervious to device renumbering, but as you've noticed, it's
tied to a machine. To fix this:

1) Boot somehow to single user
2) mount -uw /
3) bless -mount / -setBoot

That should rewrite the com.apple.Boot.plist, and you shouldn't need
to use explicit rd= arguments ever again.

Whoo-hoo! That worked!!! Thank you! FWIW, it was NRTH@0/IDE0@F,1/ CHN0@0/@1:3

After throwing a 3c905 in there because the driver for the intel nic
hates my eeprom,  I'm almost in business.  I just need to figure out
how to get my automounts working (which work fine on MacOSX using
the same nicl commands to poke them..)..

Thank you very much!
