I assume you researched it already, so I won't get
into
asking if you are
sure the 7200 will go into open-firmware. I thought it predated OF. I
I'm not sure, but most of the places I've checked seem to think it
has it.
didn't think they started that until PPC's...
but I'm not really sure
PPCs? If you mean PowerPC, I'm sure it's got a PowerPC core ;) But I
assume you mean something else.
(and seeing as the 7200 is PCI, it is a good candiate
to be
an early unit
with OF).
I've read that it was the first. With a version of 1.0.5 or something
like that. I also have a PDF from apple (specifically regarding the
7200 series) which says this:
The system software for the Power Macintosh 7200 computer includes the
following new features:
large partition support
Drive Setup
transport-independent networking (Open Transport)
Open Firmware startup
enhanced power management software
I have tried to
hit command-pretzel-o-f at bootup
Control-Command-O-F (the pretzel/cloverleaf/open apple is the command
key).
