com.apple.boot.plist looked like this when I opened it:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel.voodoo</string>
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string></string>
<key>Boot Graphics</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Quiet Boot</key>
<string>No</string>
<key>Timeout</key>
<string>5</string>
</dict>
</plist>
lol...maybe this could be the problem? Not sure how this happened but I am going to see if I can fix it. I am also beginning to wounder if this error in my boot.plist file had anything to do with the kernel panics I was getting while trying to boot with the voodoo kernel (9.5)? I remember reading somewhere that you had to rename the kernel and remove the ".voodoo" from the end of the title in order to be able to boot natively....not sure if this is true or not, but I am willing to bet so.
Again thank you for the help my friend I will let you know if the edited file boots me normally.
