Matt, have you had success with these yet? I've been having a few problems with regard to the OpenFirmware... any ideas how to get the damn things to boot from hdaX? I've tried setting it to all the nice things written so-far, such as "ata/ata-disk@x:X" (where X is the partition #), and setting the load-base to 10000 (I think that's the right # of 0s), but I still have to resort to clearing the CMOS (or "zapping the P-RAM"... I think that sounds much better :D) and booting from floppy. Cheers buddy.
