Where is my boot.plist?

[JesseGray]

Where does Chameleon look for its boot.plist by default?

 

I have loaded Chameleon 2.0 RC1 (was running efi v9 before). I used the iAtkos CD to install initially.

 

Since loading it, I can mount my EFI partition, and see a boot.plist file in the Extras folder. However, when I make changes to it (EFI strings, for instance), those don't take effect.

 

I'm sure this is related... but when I boot into Chameleon, I have to tell it "mach_kernel rd=disk0s2 -f" to get it to boot. Otherwise, it just cyclically restarts.

 

I can also boot into safe mode when I specify the kernel location.

 

Here is my boot.plist file.
