You're looking at a non-trivial bit of work. For one thing, the Apple
Ethernet interfaces are unique to Apple, so we have no drivers for
them (currently anyway). But 9mtx isn't going to work if you get it
loaded for a lot of other reasons; see the archives.

Are there any docs on how Open Firmware booting works? All
I can find are binaries and techniques that use XCOFF on
floppy disks. The ether card in my Old World isn't bootable
as there is no OF-ROM in it. I don't want to install plan9
on the disk, I'd like to save the MacOS9. Thus, writing a
boot loader is probably in my best interest.
Any URLs/etc are appreciated.
