I know this was mentioned a few months ago, but that discussion fizzled
without any useful results...
Why isn't the NetBSD macppc iso bootable by just holding 'c' on the
keyboard? Why doesn't NetBSD-macppc use a OpenFirmware Boot partition
like the linuxen do? I still think it would be seriously cool if one
could make the NetBSD boot process just as straightforward as the linux
one. Linux uses yaboot for newword machines, could we too?
Just a question, or maybe a feature request.
Cheers,
Emiel
