Thought you might like to know that I finally got DHCPD, TFTP and NFS all running off my Mac, properly it seems, the DHCPD is finally sending all the BOOTP info. Anyway the results end up the same. In the open firmware prompt I do this: Boot enet:,loader (the load comes up, says it can't find/load the kernel) I type (at the loader prompt) Load kernel/kernel.dc (it loads with minimal coaxing) After this I finally boot the kernel: Boot -s Okay and then the kernel comes up, black screen, white text, everything seems to be going well, then I get to the <mountroot> prompt, type nfs, I get this error (with your kernel Peter) mountroot> nfs Mounting root from nfs nfs_diskless: no interface Root mount failed: -1 I get that error with the kernel.dc and the kernel from the ppc-root-latest.tbz2. Welp what next? ~Dave
