Title: Where, oh where, is my firmware version?
Post by: Bbob on February 05, 2003, 02:33:00 PM

How can I find out the firmware version in my computer? I have looked at the System Profiler, the logical place, until my eyes are blurry. Have I missed it? I am using a G4 Cube 450 with System 9.0.4 and think I need to update my firmware.

Look under Hardware Overview-->Boot ROM Info ...that mumber is your Open Firmware version.

or...

Boot into Open Firmware (command+Option+o+f) the version will be at the top of the screen. Then type "mac-boot" to continue the normal boot process.

kps,

My System Profiler>Hardware Overview doesn't show Boot ROM information, however the Open Firmware gambit showed what I needed to know.

Thanks much,
