As of today, the ofppc port boots into single user mode on a Genesi Pegasos II
machine.  The port has been completely rewritten from the ground up, and is
essentially a brand new port of NetBSD.

Now that the port has been rewritten, it should not be overly difficult to make
NetBSD run on OpenFirmware-based IBM RS/6000 machines (the black ones).  It is
also hoped that eventually the port will be made to run on machines such as the
FirePower and EFIKA.

Work continues on the port, and there is still much to do to make it a fully
supported NetBSD port.  As of now, only root over NFS has been tested.  The
port is still somewhat in a state of flux, but will settle down over the next
few months.

I would like to thank Frank Wille and Allen Briggs for their invalulable
contributions to making this happen.
