Okay, now that everybody has recovered from the last patch, here's the last one - disable OFW for the short term in buildrom. Reason being, that it only worked for OLPC, and the previous patch removed OLPC. I discussed the matter briefly with Stefan and Segher, and they tell me that there are ongoing efforts to make OFW or a OpenFirmware clone of some sort usable on a generic x86. I support that 100%, I think OFW is a vital payload for this project. I just don't know enough about OpenFirmware to get the job done. So I am submitting a patch to disable, but not to remove the OFW scripts, so that those who do know what they are doing can port the code easily. When everything works, revert this patch, and we're off to the races.
Please don't! There has been a lot of ongoing effort to make this work (not with buildrom yet, though), and I think this slimming down is the wrong direction. If its broken, someone might fix it. If its gone, its gone.
