Hello,

ofwboot is the one you want if you boot scsi-int/sd@n:0, ofwboot.xcf is what you use if you want to load the loader from a filesystem ( like boot hd:,\ofwboot.xcf which would load ofwboot.xcf from the first available filesystem understood by OF3 )

to install the boot code use installboot, place ofwboot in /, then run installboot /dev/rsdnn /usr/mdec/bootxx /ofwboot
... or so, with rsdnn being the device containing your /. Check the man page :)

have fun
