Kernel Panic While Installing SATA Firmware

[riven2000]

Hello, all. I am having a problem with a Seritek/1S2 SATA card in my Gigabit Ethernet G4. I was trying to reinstall the card's firmware, and got a kernel panic during installation. Now when I start the machine with the card inside, I get an open firmware startup screen, which is frozen and won't let me type the "mac-boot" to start up. The machine runs fine without the card, but now I can't finish the firmware install.

Is there any other way to start up the computer with the card still inside, so I can finish the firmware install? Any help would be appreciated.

I should mention I forgot to disconnect the hard drive before installing, so that's probably why it panicked.
