Hello,

Old thread but appears valid. I am trying the ISO on a Pismo 
"FireWire" PowerBook with a device bay CD/DVD drive and USB keyboard.

Previously said:

>acd0: CDRW <SONY CD-RW CRX170E> at ata1-master BIOSPIO

>Manual root filesystem specification:

My listing ends with the ad0: entry but no acd0: entry. Is the device 
bay drive not supported?

During initial CD boot, it read:

Booted from: /pci@f2000000/mac-io@17/media-bay@34/ata-3@20000/disk@0
/
/boot/kernel/kernet...

Does that help any?

Thanks,

Michael.
