Mauro, buddy, take it easy. I think you might have gotten to the wrong place accidentally. this=20 mailing list is pretty much for developers. we tried to get decent=20 documentation available on the internet, but from your confusion it=20 looks like we missed the boat. The PPC platform isn't a priority for=20 fBSD, and as such isn't fully supported. If you want to run a=20 non-Apple OS and need it now, NetBSD is a really strong and capable=20 machine. If you want to help out with fBSD development on PPC, then=20 you've found the right place. Dag isn't trying to be a jerk, but we=20 get a lot of people who wander in here without looking at anything else=20= clamoring about weather or not their particular box is supported, and=20 the answer is that none of them are. If you're willing to give the=20 test environment a shot, there are directions and some images that=20 peter grehan has put together, but it's not a full release yet. I=20 believe that if you look through the archives you can find all of this=20= information and more about the current status of the fBSD Port. Their=20= location currently escapes me, but google knows. Hope this information helps, -James -------------------------------------------- "Never trust a man who can count to 1024 on his fingers" -------------------------------------------- On Apr 24, 2005, at 9:34 AM, Mauro wrote: > On Sun, 2005-04-24 at 18:24 +0200, Dag-Erling Sm=F8rgrav wrote: >> Mauro <mcepeda@ualberta.ca> writes: >>> If you want to be held by the hand and told how to install you can >>> go to the appropriate corresponding bsd sites. >> >> If I wanted to know about OpenBSD or NetBSD, I'd have asked about >> OpenBSD or NetBSD.
