Hi,

First let me say that I know that this model is unsupported (at the=20
moment that is :-)

But since Klaus klein has been working on MPC601 support and said to me=20=

in february that it was kinda working for the RS6000, I thought it=20
could be worth to try.

So I have taken an 1.6_RC2 boot floppy and copied it to a floppy=20
(actually two different floppies to make sure I was not confronted to a=20=

bad floppy).
I patched my OF with the (patched) Apple System Disk.
I booted through serial console (using a IIci running netbsd !)

But it won't boot netbsd. I don't know if it's an OF problem, or if I'm=20=

hitting the processor not supported part.

Here are some info that might  be helpful for you to help me :-)

It does not change anything if I reset-all between tries. The first one=20=

is always default catch! and successive ones are all CLAIM failed.

Thanks in advance for your help,
