Firmware Help
My question this time has to do with firmware.First, I am not totally sure of what this is and does. Second, the issue I am having is this: I have a 233 Bondi with 128MB that I believe I forgot to update the firmware on when I got it. It had 9.2 installed already then I just went right onto installing 10.3. After doing so, I went to restart after the install and the only screen that would come up is gray-white in color with the phrase "failed to boot" among other things. It does say I have firmware version 3.0.f3 and the build date. After a bit of research here in the forum I found a link about resetting the nvram. When I do that I am able to boot into OS X but each time I shut down the same "failed to boot" screen appears. I since wiped the hard drive and tried to install just 10.3 without 9.2, this worked but I am still getting the same screen. Now my question, If I wipe the hard drive again, install 9.2, then update firmware from there, then reinstall 10.3 would this fix the problem? Or am I stuck? Or is there another way to fix this?
Thank you for any ideas and help. As usual this place is a wealth of knowledge.
