I've put up diffs against PearPC 0.2 (pearpc.sourceforge.net) at www.freebsd.org/~grehan/pearpc.tgz There's also sample config file and a README describing the diffs. Syscons works with a 32-bit framebuffer, but is hideously slow. It's best to break into the loader and 'set hw.syscons.disable=1'. The system doesn't quite get to single user - I'm investigating. I've been booting with a CD image that's also bootable on a Mac. The incantation to do this is, from the root CD directory: mkisofs -r -hfs -map ../hfs.map -part -no-desktop -hfs-bless ./boot -hfs-volid FreeBSD/PPC -o ../image.iso . The file fbsd.tbxi has to be copied into the boot directory on the CD, where the loader lives. Both hfs.map and fbsd.tbxi are available at www.freebsd.org/~grehan/ later, Peter.
