Is there a way? 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. [1] As shipped by Apple. You can go grab an EFI shell from various places and install it on your system, but it's not there by default. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
