Hmm, I guess I got confused because the linux 2.6.26 kernel detects it as type 66 (Blue&White G3). ANd of course I read somewhere that openfirmware 3 was only ever used on newworld Macs, and that seems to be what openbios implements. > In last openbios, I've managed to be able to boot with quik. But debian-installer doesn't create a correct quik.conf. I can't get quik to work, but yaboot works. Well after convincing it that it was a newworld machine. > As qemu emulates a newworld machine, openbios doesn't create an entry for interrupt-controller. According to the powermac setup in the linux kernel, only newworld machines have the entry for 'interrupt-controller' so you must mean qemu emulates oldworld, which is what you said at the top. > use qemu with "-M mac99". But for the moment it doesn't support openbios. Yeah I noticed. So far mac99 didn't seem functional to me. > Bad Idea... So it seemed. > lsprop /proc/device-tree Hmm, OK. I will try that. So for some reason I have it working with yaboot (which is supposedly only for newworld machines) along with openbios. Hmm. -- Len Sorensen
