For anyone reading phaedrus's post who isn't familiar with the debug page, typing "?" brings up a list of commands, including "bios unlock" and "bios lock" which you need to be able change the hardware version.

Now, if only SSL wasn't so slow........
Well, in spite of all your warnings, i was too slow to re-enable the hardware version, and it rebooted before I did it. Thus, I now have a similar version of his original boat anchor. Were you able to find out how to get it back to a bootable condition, or how he was able to remove the bios, as he mentioned. Unfortunately, it appears just redoing the hard drive won't do it, as the new version information is now in nvram, and I have to get it up, to make that change, and so the circle turns.
