There is one more thing to try : your nvram. You may try to remove the
nvram.nw. I think mol should build a new one automatically. If it doesn't,
there is a utility to copy a new nvram file from your built-in one. See
/usr/doc/mol-0.9-xx/Dev/Nvram and /usr/lib/mol/nvram/... and the main
(usually unmodified) mol config file in /usr/lib/mol.
