66 +Unfortunately, there was a bug in some versions of the baselayout scripts. To
67 +get the system booting, the hardware clock will need to be set. To set the
68 +clock boot into Open Firmware (using the key combination of Apple + O + F).
69 +Once you are at the Open Firmware prompt, you can set the clock using the
70 +command below:

81 +
82 +<p>
83 +Open Firmware will return with an ok after the clock is set. The system should
84 +boot normally now. Type <c>mac-boot</c> to continue booting after the clock is
85 +set.
