That part is fixed. Now here's some more problems... Now when I boot into FreeBSD I get errors about "Operation not permitted" during bootup when it's trying to mount /var /usr and /tmp. I had the same errors during the install after setting them up in Disk labeler (I only created two partitions on the external firewire HD under Mac OSX as Unix File System). It dumps me to the default shell (/usr/bin/sh), and thats it. I can grab an IP for my built in ethernet (pretty sweet!) but thats about all I can do, trying to grab a port tarball with portsnap leaves it hung at extracting. Is this all there is for FreeBSD on PPC? Or did I miss something horribly simple, and bork my install? Rickey On 8/5/06, Rickey Bartlett wrote: > > Still doesnt work...
