Not yet, sorry. First the boot-floppies must work. After this i know (hopefully) how to setup the different powerpc subarchs. But i need also testers!!! Currently one for pmac and one for prep. Did the kernel-image-xxxx-pmac and kernel-image-xxxx-prep work for you? Please report anything that is missing -- in the kernel and for the modules. Second request: does someone know how to write unix files in 'rawmode' for to pmac floppies (on pmac)? Prep uses msdos? Has somone tested BootX? OF on pmac can't boot elf-images, it will have the coff format? How is it on prep (ppcbug)? Booting with floppy is crasy :-( Tftp/bootp (netboot) should be much easier, but not everyone has an second computer. The quik package is available in the next days (need also testing). Have we other 'lilos' ? What about milo? Knows someone the format for floppies/cdroms that OF can 'auto-start'? (format of the bootsector/MBR) Thanks, Hartmut
