In regards to Steve's and Nigels recent posts (that I deleted 5 seconds
before remembering this), there is a known problem with booting 68k
machines off of an HFS+ disk (i.e. it doesn't work, nor will it ever
work). So, it's conceivable that this is in some way related.....although
I've got to admit, I don't know what MacOS is doing at the time the Booter
tries to shut it down, so maybe not (and I really don't know why it would
have problems when it's not booting off the volume which has the HFS+
partitions).
Anyway, perhaps this will help some.
Later.
