Hi Ted -
I'm surprised that you were able to get MOL to boot from the thread I
started, because I haven't succeeded yet. Here's what I get (note that
my boot disk according to df is /dev/disk1, and /dev/rdisk1 according
to pdisk; they both behave the same):
# ./startmol -X
Running from the source tree.

DONE
If you could send me your MOL output, and perhaps your MOL settings
from /etc/mol/molrc.osx and /etc/mol/molrc.macos, that would be super.
Thanks in advance -
