I decided to try burning an image from Index of ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/powerpc/powerpc/ISO-IMAGES/9.0/ And here are the following errors: 1.) The usb image doesn't boot. From following Whitehorn and others on the FreeBSD PowerPC mailing list, one needs to have the bootloader dd'ed to a HFS formatted partition of 1MB. A README with basic instructions and/or references to forum and mailing list posts needs to be available for all non i386/amd64 systems. 2) The boot-only and disc-1 images stop at sc0: Unknown <16 virtual consoles, flags=0x300> Booting with -s or -v or a combination does nothing.
