Hello,
Well, I finally got my Mac to boot NetBSD/macppc 1.4.
I still have to boot through 'ttyb' as kbd/screen does not work _at all_.
I can't boot directly from the hard drive (apparently, it has no 'load'
word in Open Firmware). So, instead I boot from the floppy with the
command:
boot fd:0 -a
When asked where I should boot from:
Boot: ata/ATA-Disk@0
works fine for me. The only other catch to booting this way is that
ata/ATA-Disk@0 must be the boot-device in OF.
A special thank-you to all you guys who worked on this amazing project:
you're awesome. =)
