Hello,

I am really interested in using NetBSD on my macintosh powerbook but
unfortunately, I did not succeed in booting NetBSD's kernel on the
install CD-ROM.

Here are the steps I followed (since I've read the install guide and
macppc port install notes several times as mentioned :) )

- I downloaded the macppccd-3.0.iso with wget from ftp.NetBSD.org
(several times)
- I burnt it with: 'cdrecord -v dev=/dev/cdrw speed=4 -data -eject
macppccd-3.0.iso' (several times)
- I booted from OpenFirmware 3 : 'boot cd:,ofwboot.xcf netbsd.macppc'

and I had this output :
"
...
NetBSD/macppc OpenFirmware Boot revision 1.10
build@b2.netbsd.org Mon Dec 19 01:03:51 UTC 2005

start=0x100000

Invalid memory access at SRR0:db6db6db8 SSR1:40003030

I do not understand what it means but I cannot boot NetBSD. I tried to
boot Gentoo Linux and Debian Linux install CDs on the powerbook which
work fine.

Did I miss something ?

Cheers,
