Hi Sean, > I recompiled and installed the kernel and it now boots to > the point of hanging after the "Updating motd." message. > It doesn't seem to be looking at etc/ttys yet, but at least > it is now producing a var/run/dmesg.boot ! Hmmm, I'm not sure what's happening here: you may need to put some debug in the shell scripts to see where/why it's hanging. Here's what my iBook spits out just after these lines: Updating motd. sendmail: execing /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail: No such file or directory sendmail: execing /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail: No such file or directory Initial powerpc initialization:. Additional ABI support:. Local package initialization:. Additional TCP options:. Starting cron. Starting background file systems checks in 60 seconds.

You need the sparc 64 ttys file - the name of the console was changed recently from 'ofwcons' to 'screen'. later, Peter.
