It must be Dual Processor as he's got an Apple Radeon X800XT (an AGP gfx card).
@bonoedgey: I might be stubborn, but what about USB boot?
Just put morphos.iso (for your convenience I'd rename it to morphos.iso) and boot.img (unpacked from the /mac_ppc64 folder on it) in the root directory of a FAT formatted USB stick and then:
1. plug the stick in
2. determine in OF which USB port it is by typing:
Code:
dev usb0 ls
dev usb1 ls
...
and so on until you'll see the OF lists the /disk@1
3. type:
Code:
boot usb1/disk@1:,boot.img bi umsd0:morphos.iso
of course if the disk@1 is in
usb0 you type:
Code:
boot usb0/disk@1:,boot.img bi umsd0:morphos.iso
and so on. If that works then we could reject the optical drive hypothesis.
