I'm attempting to install onto a G4 Cube with a busted CD-ROM drive. I've never done network booting before, so I'm sure I'm just missing something.
I set up NFS and TFTP on a linux box, copied ofwboot to the TFTP share and bsd.rd plus all the tgz files to the NFS share. In Open Firmware, I'm setting: default-server-ip -> ip of linux box root-path -> "x.x.x.x:/path/to/nfs/share" next-server -> ip of linux box and then: > boot enet:,ofwboot /bsd.rd The TFTP part seems to be working. I get: >> OpenBSD/macppc BOOT 1.6 but then: open(/pci@f4000000/ethernet:/etc/boot.conf): Unknown error: code 60 boot> cannot open /pci@f4000000/ethernet:/etc/random.seed: Unknown error: code 60 booting /pci@f4000000/ethernet:/bsd.rd: open /pci@f4000000/ethernet:/bsd.rc: Unknown error: code 60 failed(60). will try /bsd boot> ..and then it fails to boot bsd Am I required to set up a DHCP server, too?
