There is no quad core. Never was. > Anyways, the install simply doesn't work. See, for example: https://everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac_g5/specs/powermac_g5_quad_2.5.html There was: two sockets with 2 cores each. Apple Marketing called this configuration "Quad Core": It is a misnomer or is at least misleading given what their "Dual Core" vs "dual processor" wording referred to. I frequently reference the "Quad Core" as "so-called 'Quad Core'" for the "PowerPC 970MP (G5) x2" configuration. I have access to two of these and top and other things show all 4 "cpus" (in FreeBSD terminology). === Mark Millard Nexus Technology, Inc. 78 Northeastern Blvd., Unit #2 Nashua NH 03062 877-595-8116 x821 mark.millard@nexustechnology.com [-- Attachment #2 --] 0 *H 010 + 0 *H 00 1-0 *H 0L1 0UGlobalSign Root CA - R310U GlobalSign10U GlobalSign0 110802100000Z 190802100000Z0]10 UBE10U GlobalSign nv-sa1301U*GlobalSign PersonalSign 1 CA - SHA256 - G20"0 *H 0 R)_͋ e~Sɡ^ st)hOj@21۱q^7_V9UQ)y)^D$X W/.i+6F_ܷ YXy?t +6b <^24OXa9P2h?hE&^ 9Fߣ /uxL(=˼DA)vh+W [qFތ5s 00U0U0 0U)[Bnw4WAm0GU @0>0<U 0402+&https://www.globalsign.com/repository/06U/0-0+)'%http://crl.globalsign.net/root-r3.crl0U#0K.E$MPc0 *H ._ `?o:f\nh~<0})GCB%!P,ˮ Зg$7QvRقO>0Nj/@T4/C<ɒ|g˪wM6!%lH?P"f|wPaO?}#0Jo Ϩ[dvGT=,/i4H&@F8 ԡHHMs[ޅG+$[qX+>00ʠfU[N; 0 *H 0]10 UBE10U GlobalSign nv-sa1301U*GlobalSign PersonalSign 1 CA - SHA256 - G20 151029094448Z 181029094448Z0\1)0'U mark.millard@nexustechnology.com1/0- *H mark.millard@nexustechnology.com0"0 *H 0 H.8؍*L6dՔ!op.ֵtH Hdy^s3B .dLp-V^z'nIa#L#A_Jl#8L<74#I-L1#/ٞIv [XUsiE(tb8uG)6ѱ@Q(X;7W';S8K6ᚙG=o.UTShMXN&B4]Jy 00U0LU E0C0A +2(0402+&https://www.globalsign.com/repository/0+U$0" mark.millard@nexustechnology.com0 U0 0U%0++0GU@0>0<:86http://crl.globalsign.com/gs/gspersonalsign1sha2g2.crl0Y+M0K0I+0=http://secure.globalsign.com/cacert/gspersonalsign1sha2g2.crt0UPykԄjl'0U#0)[Bnw4WAm0 *H ЪCdŖ>6JƪK.xW,EOe69v'V9^8zO$nagĕ&& 826{6j_9_~GJ|@!)aAoAGJX#x5`xV,Mز6beKKvX"2(G!1v=jk-rj_TM;<= k䌩",)sn>]= =mT]100q0]10 UBE10U GlobalSign nv-sa1301U*GlobalSign PersonalSign 1 CA - SHA256 - G2fU[N; 0 + e0 *H 1 *H 0 *H 1 181008201643Z0# *H 194KLؔ%!W!0 +71s0q0]10 UBE10U GlobalSign nv-sa1301U*GlobalSign PersonalSign 1 CA - SHA256 - G2fU[N; 0*H 1sq0]10 UBE10U GlobalSign nv-sa1301U*GlobalSign PersonalSign 1 CA - SHA256 - G2fU[N; 0 *H bNݦg`CYGfC\*c-խjTݱ{)f>jdjP!5]^&UϥS%YCUQ4ݔ, c,u67?} rxPWّjU>vϬ#S=\sJ >tklǜ«z삸Џ`41D>dy/1^lT(1 .u=]nF3別a%ʵQthome | help
