My old iMac G3 list report from 2015-Mar-30 ( = https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ppc/2015-March/007563.html ) = for head (11-CURRENT) -r280598 still basically applies to head = (12-CURRENT) -r308247 : > iMac G3 (I've access to only one example G3):=20 >=20 > After=20 >=20 > > Time counters tick every 1.000 msec=20 >=20 > it gets:=20 >=20 > > [Thread pid 0 tid 100037]=20 > > Stopped at pmap_activate+0x7c lwz r11,r1,0x0=20 >=20 > which may be reporting the instruction after a indirect subroutine = jump.=20 =20 Although the tid is now 100040 if I remember right. If I remember right, = the 0x7c has not changed, nor has the type of instruction listed. The SSD boots various other PowerMac G4's and G5's just fine. Back on 2015-Mar-30 I reported that 10.1-STABLE of that time worked = fine. (I was not explicit about the -r.) [Unlike back then there is no problem with -r308247 booting the PowerMac = G5's.] [The oddball PowerMac G4 that no version of FreeBSD that I've tried has = ever managed to boot still has the status as of -r308247: it gets to the = same point and silently hangs. Mac OS X and Lubuntu and the like boot it = just fine.] =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard markmi at dsl-only.net
