Yeah, the Lombard does have OF. I've used OpenFirmware on a 3400
before as well.

Isn't the Lombard too old a design for Open Firmware? According

first Powerbook that is.

According to Apple:
"Beginning with Power Macintosh computers with PCI slots, Power
Macintosh computers rely on a firmware operating system called
"Open Firmware" for controlling hardware. Open Firmware is a
cross-platform firmware standard for controlling hardware and is
used by all PCI-based Mac OS computers."
PowerBook 3400 and on are PCI based. I haven't tried it on a 3400
or G3 but I haved used OF on a WallStreet. I don't recall if I've
tried on a Lombard.
You may be confusing OF with NewWorld. The Wallstreet is Old
World, I think the Pismo IS New World but I don't know off hand
about the Lombard.
