    Morphos boot.img version is too old

    in order to boot from the morphos cd, type boot/pci/cd
    to the openfirmware prompt


    tryed boot/pci/cd but comes up as unknown word.
    also ryed boot cd boot.img but says its "LOAD-SIZE too small

    Same here. So I typed boot cd/boot.img and all went ok, even installation.
    I guess it's normal, due to a boot.img enhancement.

    Edit: using a Peg II. Don't know if Mac Mini works different.

    You believe that will make a difference?

    Had problems updating from 2.4 to 2.5 on my Pegasos 2 that is, it couldt boot the boot.img after update.
    so i just did fresh install instead and everything worked fine.
