never mind, i missed this part:

		if(strstr(v[0], "/9fat") == nil)
			safeoff = 0;

the open failed, but the error is lost.

the open might fail because you typed
the wrong value for $nvram, or perhaps
it fails because the open is ORDWR?
i doubt the ide driver is smart
enough to know that flash is only OREAD,
so i don't think this is it.
