Hi GMKai,
That sounds as if there's a mistake in the boot-command (eg wrong partition number).
It might be worth checking this bit again:
Quote:
To determine the partition number of the HFS boot partition type the following:
dir hd:x,\\
where x should be a number from 3 to n, depending on partition layout. If you see boot.img and bootinfo.txt files being listed, this is the correct one. Now type:
setenv boot-command boot hd:x,\\bootinfo.txt
replacing x with the partition number you just found.
It might also just be worth checking that no typos have been made when inputting the boot-command using 'printenv boot-command' at the openfirmware prompt (eg mistaking colon for semicolon, forward-slash for back-slash, etc).
