I'm trying to set up a way to easily track the progress of FreeBSD on PowerPC. I can net boot my iBook, but it doesn't go into syscons. I'm stuck with the slow white screen with black text. What do I have to do to get it to use syscons? The snapshot that was posted on http://people.freebsd.org/~grehan/ppc-root-102303.tbz2 worked with syscons. Besides that, most things seem to be working :) Joel Diaz
