Re: ppc/1566: 2.8 CD's give wrong boot instructions

Is the instruction you're referring to here contained in any of the
following directory of files in CVS that make up INSTALL.powerpc or is
this a CD-specific file? (ie a generic instruction somewhere that isn't
otherwise online):
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/distrib/notes/powerpc/
I ask this question because the files in that directory do not specify the
platform or release that they are targeted for, being substituted in
during the actual build.
Example:
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/distrib/notes/powerpc/contents?rev=1.23
Important Open Firmware command examples:
-----------------------------------------
boot cd:,ofwboot /OSREV/MACHINE/bsd.rd
(boot from an appropriately prepared
OpenBSD CD in the CD/DVD drive)
