Actually, the real OpenFirmware on PowerMac G3 is also complaining about
"cursor on", but it's not fatal.  Open Hackware doesn't have Forth
interpreter, so it recognizes Forth commands by checksums and panics for
unknown checksums.

I could resurrect my Mac by replugging everything on the motherboard.

The real OpenFirmware fails to recognize modules embedded into the image
by grub-mkimage.  I remember I spent some time fixing it, but it's
broken again.
