As part of my work on BSDInstall (http://wiki.freebsd.org/BSDInstall), I've produced an install CD that can set up a bootable system on Apple powerpc hardware. This may be useful to people trying to set up new machines. An ISO is here: http://people.freebsd.org/~nwhitehorn/bsdinstall-powerpc-20110116.iso.bz2 Because of some trouble with mkisofs, the CD is not an HFS hybrid and so is slightly harder to boot than normal. You must first boot into Open Firmware (cmd-option-O-F), and then enter: boot cd:,\BOOT\LOADER.;1 cd:0 -Nathan
