(If yes, could we use Technical Note TN2118 to configure the same ?) Yes. I use a process that's at least similar to TN2118 to configure them. I think the only difference is that I use a slightly different boot_args debug value gleaned from various tech notes. I'm currently using: $ nvram boot-args boot-args debug=0x1d44 _panicd_ip=10.0.1.90 Thanks for that, I was just going to ask the exact same question. I have a follow up though. -allen This email sent to adc@jeremyp.net _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

I was able to retrieve the situation by booting to Open Firmware (opt cmd O F + power switch) and setting the nvram parameter there. 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? Or if not is there another way to retrieve a mistake of this sort? -- Allen Briggs | http://www.ninthwonder.com/~briggs/ | briggs@ninthwonder.com _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
