--- Comment #37 from Sean McBride <sean@rogue-research.com> ---
Ah ok.  It's probably worth noting that the MacPro1,1 is a bit weird in that
it's generally a fully 64 bit system, *except* it has only 32 bit EFI.

Apparently, FreeBSD does not support EFI32, see #215143.

So, I have used the technique below to remove the EFI part from the CD .iso:

e-2006-models/

As I said, this results in a working OpenBSD 6.6 DVD, and according to that
site, many linux distros too.

I have many models of Macs at my office, I can try others, if that's likely=
 to
yield any useful information.
