NetBSD seems to create an OF note section. I have booted NetBSD using standard bootp and tftp, along with holding down the 'N' key on a blue & white G3. I've also gotten a CHRP linux kernel image to load and start unzipping the kernel. However, I haven't had the time in the last couple of months to actually work out all the details with where the kernel loads and setting the processor memory management in a state where the linux boot code can handle it. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Troy Benjegerdes | troy@blacklablinux.com | hozer@drgw.net | | Unix is user friendly...
