I pulled a G5 I had sitting in a closed and followed the docs for macppc install. I booted from a CD and did a mbr install. At the end I see the installer installs a mp kernel as /bsd. The processor is dual core, so makes sense. Everything went fine and I rebooted to the Open Firmware ok prompt. When I try to boot /bsd I see the following:
[ using 1322900 bytes of bsd ELF symbol table ] console out [NVDA,Display-B] console in [keyboard], using USB using parent NVDA,Parent:: memaddr a2000000, size 20000 : consaddr 90020000 : ioaddr a1000000, size 1000000: width 1600 linebytes 2048 height 1200 depth 8 and it just sits there, and then after a bit the fans spin up. I power cycle the box, get to the Open Firmware ok prompt and boot /bsd.sp and it works. Full dmesg output from bsd.sp boot.
