Anyway some time ago I tried to apply those patches and got Mac OS X to start booting, you can see description and some screenshots at this address: http://www.emaculation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=7047
Thank you for uploading the images. They give me hope. I was wondering what operating system you where using. It looks like NeXtStep.
linux, with windowmaker window manager
I will certainly test any new patches that appear ;)
Could you test this one?
This patch adds an feature to OpenBIOS that automatically selects the correct partition to use. You can see this code in action when you use these commands: "dir cd:," and "boot cd:,\:tbxi".

It is not seeing some files, it should have mach_kernel in this listing.
However when I also add checking for correct partition signature (http://lists.openbios.org/pipermail/openbios/2011-August/006618.html) it seems to work
