Used the ppc (boot only) ISO of FreeBSD 10.4, 11.1, 11.2, 11.3 (all -RELEASE) to boot off a CD - it goes through orange screen with all OFW stuff, I hit Enter then it goes through the boot process but then all of a sudden, the machine reboots. All 4 major releases render the same results. In terms of booting off a CD with all the attempts I've made to get into the FreeBSD installer, I tried the built-in slot-loading drive and an external CD/DVD drive (USB). FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE, -STABLE and 13-CURRENT gets stuck but doesn't reboot and halts. Links to screen shots are below: https://danskoya.com/freebsd-ppc/boot1.jpg https://danskoya.com/freebsd-ppc/boot2.jpg https://danskoya.com/freebsd-ppc/boot3.jpg I know this is unrelated, but I managed to install OpenBSD 6.6 ppc on the same machine using the same booting method. Please advise as to what I should do to move forward. I'm a novice FreeBSD user and have a lot of patience. Thank you, and much appreciated. -- Steve
