Here is the entire devalias from my machine:

pci   /pci
bridge   /pci/@d
mac-io   /pci/@d/mac-io
via-cuda   /pci/@d/mac-io/via-cuda
rtc   /pci/@d/mac-io/via-cuda/rtc
adb-keyboard   /pci/@d/mac-io/via-cuda/adb/keyboard
adb-mouse   /pci/@d/mac-io/via-cuda/adb/mouse
sound   /pci/@d/mac-io/davbus/sound
enet   /pci/@d/mac-io/ethernet
scca   /pci/@d/mac-io/escc/ch-a
sccb   /pci/@d/mac-io/escc/ch-b
nvram   /pci/@d/mac-io/nvram
ide0   /pci/@d/mac-io/ata-3@20000
cd   /pci/@d/mac-io/ata-3@20000/disk@0
zip   /pci/@d/mac-io/ata-3@20000/disk@1
ide1   /pci/@d/pci-ata@1/ata-4@0

usb-keyboard
usb-mouse
no-boot   /pci@80000000/pci-bridge@d/mac-io@5/fdc
last-boot   /pci@80000000/pci-bridge@d/mac-io@5/ethernet
screen   /pci@80000000/ATY,Rage128y@10

I hope this helps...

I didn't find much information about netbooting macppc from another
OS, but there are some rudimentary instructions for OpenBSD which I
will try.

Thanks!
