Just to let everyone know, I've successfully installed the 1.5 release
NetBSD on a brand new 466 MHz G4.  I can't quite figure out if it's a
(digital audio) or a (gigabit ethernet) machine, it seems to have both.  In
any case, some of the model support information seemed to suggest that I
would need -current for this machine, this is apparently not the case.

I installed it to dual boot, according to instructions posted to this list
recently.  Whoever posted those instructions, next time you should put your
name and stuff somewhere in the text file, so that due credit can be given.
I must say, installing NetBSD hung the machine fewer times than reinstalling
MacOS.

Is there any support for recording on the CD-RW drive from the NetBSD side?
