Quik boot nto MacOS partition
I have installed the base Debian system on my Power Mac 7200 on a separate disk from my Mac OS 8.5. I was using BootX from the Mac OS disk. I make the mistake of making the Linux disk the bootpartition and now my system boots ONLY into the Linux drive, without the correct video drivers, which makes it very hard to see what's going on. I have been unable to get into Open Firmware and I don't know how to set up the 'Quik' configuration to boot the Mac OS partition.
 
Does anyone have some examples of the 'quik.conf' for booting MacOS (8.5) ?
Thanks! Meanwhile, I'm looking for some cables to try to get into the VRAM.
