- update hardware list, mention some unsupported devices as well.

- move open firmware 101 to the ``preparation'' section
- don't try to scare people wanting to upgrade, it works well nowadays
- remove the note about not being able to boot from a Zip disk.

thanks to some feedback from drahn@

-There are several ways to boot a supported PowerPC Macintosh system into
-the OpenBSD installer.  Unfortunately they all currently require some
-limited knowledge of Open Firmware, the low-level process that controls
-the microprocessor after hardware initialization and diagnostics are
-performed but before control is handed to the operating system.
-
-To access Open Firmware you should simultaneously hold down the
-Command, Option, O and F keys immediately upon booting.  You will
-be presented with information and a ">" prompt that will look something
-like this (example taken from a Power Macintosh G4):

-
-Welcome to Open Firmware
-To continue booting, type "mac-boot" and press return
-To shut down, type "shut-down" and press return

-Important Open Firmware command examples:
------------------------------------------
-
-boot cd:,ofwboot /OSREV/MACHINE/bsd.rd
-
-		(boot from an appropriately prepared
-		OpenBSD CD in the CD/DVD drive)
-
-boot enet:,ofwboot /bsd.rd
-
-		(netboot from a pre-configured bootp/tftp/nfs
-		server containing the "ofwboot" and "bsd.rd"
-		files at the root directory of the tftp server)
-
-boot ide1:,ofwboot /bsd
-
-		(After installation, boot /bsd from the slave
-		 device on the second ATA bus)
-
-mac-boot	(boot into MacOS)
-reset-all	(reboot the machine)
-shut-down	(halt the machine; shutdown)
-printenv	(print current machine variables)
-setenv		(set a machine variable)
-devalias	(list device aliases; useful for locating other
-		devices in the machine such as hard drives etc)
-
-As seen above, device aliases typically take the form of "ide", "cd"
-etc.  To boot to an alternative device you may substitute them
-with entries from this list (example devices taken from a Power
-Macintosh G4):
-
-ultra0 = hd = master device, primary ATA bus (factory-installed drive)
-ultra1 =      slave device, primary ATA bus
-ide0   = cd = master device, secondary ATA bus (CD/DVD drive)
-ide1   =      slave device, secondary ATA bus (Zip drive, if installed)
-enet   =      motherboard ethernet device
-
-Other Open Firmware command examples:
--------------------------------------
-
-setenv auto-boot? false
-
-		(force the machine to wait at Open Firmware
-		for user input at next reboot; options are true/false)
-
-setenv boot-device ide:,ofwboot /bsd
-
-		(force the machine to boot into OpenBSD
-		automatically at next reboot)
-
-dev /		(change to root level of the device tree)
-pwd		(show current location in the device tree)
-ls		(show items at current location in the device tree)
-words		(show methods of items at current location in the device tree)
-.properties	(show properties of items at current location in the device tree)
-
-
-NOTES:
-	The MACHINE port does not currently support booting from a USB
-	Zip drive, if installed.
-
-	To reset a Power Macintosh to the factory-configure Open Firmware
-	settings, simultaneously hold down the Command, Option, P, R keys
-	immediately upon booting.  Typically the machine will then attempt to
-	load Mac OS, if available.
