FYI; I missed this thread the first time around.

: The readme file at the NetBSD site says, "The following architectures
: _do_ have bootable CD images: alpha, i386, macppc, pmax, sparc, vax."
: It does NOT say the the macppc image is a hybrid unusable to owners of
: older PowerMacs.

The macppccd.iso image in misc/iso on the official ftp.netbsd.org mirrors
*is* bootable on all of OFW 1-3.  It's prepared by the src/distrib/cdrom
makefile tools, and is a HFS/ISO hybrid CD (OFW3/2.4) with an Apple
Partition Map and bootblock (OFW1/2).  The ofwboot used is "ofwboot.xcf" in
all cases, even for OFW3.
