Thanks Adrian. In fact, I was looking for something like this. But still I'm not able to let the iMac boot with server-mode=1: when I restart very early I get the message
via-pmu: Server Mode is disabled

Yes, exactly; but it seems there is no such a variable! But I know on MacOSX you are able to do something like this: does it depend on OpenFirmware or not?



The OF can't power-on your system, that's the job of the PMU.

Running
echo server_mode=1 > /proc/pmu/options

should do the trick.

I believe that a desirable future depends on our deliberately
choosing a life of action over a life of consumption,
on our engendering a lifestyle which will enable us to be spontaneous,
independent, yet related to each other, rather than maintaining
a lifestyle which only allows to make and unmake, produce and consume.
The future depends more upon our choice of institutions
which support a life of action than on our developing
new ideologies and technologies.
