Hey I know a few comands for the Open-firmware comands but I want to know more about what all you can do.

to get into the Open firmware you restart the computer (DT G3 or newer) OPTION - COMAND - O - F
here are the comands I do know

reset-NVRAM
set-defaults
reset-all

from what I was told these are used after you replace a LB on computer.

Here's some more from Apple. You can find a more complete list if you do a search on Google. There's pretty cool things to be done with it. You can make the mac scroll a text startup sequence just like a pc to impress your idiot friends who don't know what those extension icons are.
