Yes. OS X does mess with open firmware, resulting in the problem you are
describing. The following solutions have shown up on the list.

1. Hold down the Option key while booting. Select the proper icon based
   on which OS you want to boot.

2. Boot into open firmware and type the following

   setenv boot-device hd:XX,ofboot.b
   reset-all

  where XX is the partition number of your bootloader partition.
