How do I get information on bootstrapping FreeBSD to boot on a powerpc machine? Do I need a x86 machine to cross-compile? Can I use a NetBSD running on the native ppc platform? Is gcc in Darwin OK? Please help me starting. Which hw are people on this list trying to port to? Mac only? Does that require to cross-compile using a toolchain on a x86 machine? What the stage of advancement of the project? Does that pass the console login prompt yet? So many questions...
