Hello misc,

I managed to acquire a xserve G4 for the project. But, before I ship it, I want to make sure that everything works as it should. Here's where I come across a problem. I just saw on the macpcc.html page that the VGA card is not supported and it should be removed and access should be gained via console. Only downside is, I don't have any spare serial cables left. Is there anyone who has an idea if it is possible to do an complete headless install or lives in the Netherlands (preferably near Arnhem) and has a spare cable for the install? (of course a patch to fix the VGA-issue would be most welcome too)

Hi.

We are looking for a second xserve G4 for the OpenBSD ports building
infrastructure. Currently, only one machine is doing all the work and
a bulk can last up to 1 month which makes it very hard to stay in sync
with snapshots.
We are also low on RAM on this machine (only 512M) which makes the build
even longer and prevent building some ports.

If anyone could donate and ship such a machine and/or compliant RAM (1G
would be nice), please contact me. The machine will be hosted in
Alberta, Canada.

Thank you.
