how are you effectively cooling these as my mdd runs relatively hot
already? and i would lke to do this but i am a chicken and i dont
want to ruin a good thing. i witnessed online a gentlemen who showed
me the resistors on the cpu chip itself to adjust, but decided not to
do it until i had one myslef to try out.

I just realized your MDD is dual-CPU. This will likely require a
slightly different patch because the G4 Mini is single CPU. The line
in the patch "dev PowerPC,G4@0" would likely need an additional CPU
which I'd guess would probably be identified as "G4@1"? I don't know
the nuances of Open Firmware, so it's possible the solution for dual
CPUs could be as simple as appending "G4@1" to the "dev
PowerPC,G4@0" like this "dev PowerPC,G4@0,G4@1"?
Since I don't know the real answer for dual CPUs I think that the
simplest solution would be to enter the entire patch TWICE, once for
G4@0 and once for G4@1 in the line "dev PowerPC,G4@0".
If you want to do this in a single operation without an intermediate
reboot, you could enter up to step #5 "nvstore"<Return> for G4@0 and
then repeat from step #1 again for G4@1 and only after the 2nd step
#5 proceed to #6 & #7 which tell the Mac to use these alternate
stored versions and reboot.
It's possible you may need to read up on Open Firmware commands for
this dual CPU patch to work correctly, but it should be possible.
