Dumping ROM from New World Mac

Post by Jose64141 »

I have an iMac G4, and I want to dump the ROM, so I was wondering if there is an way to tho it from the OS, like CopyROM.

New World Macs don't have ROMs to dump; they have Open Firmware, and load the data off the boot disk.

The "ROM" it loads is stored on-disk already, and is dependent on the OS being loaded. As such, you can pull it directly off the install disc you'd use to install the OS.
