Beese) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.netbsd.misc Subject: Re: NetBSD on a PB180C ? Date: 23 Jan 1996 18:04:06 GMT Organization: Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa USA Lines: 27 Message-ID: <4e37um$1b2@news.iastate.edu> References: <4e0h6i$4m0@enst.enst.fr> NNTP-Posting-Host: oper.cc.iastate.edu Keywords: NetBSD , Powerbook I have NetBSD/Mac68k running on my PowerBook 180. I have found that it only will boot with an external monitor plugged in (perhaps you can trick it). It seems to only work with serial console/serial boot echo. You would need a terminal of some sort hooked up for it to work. I think people are working on getting it to boot without need of the serial console, but I don't think it is ready yet. I am running a kernel that I ftp'd from ftp://ghpc8.ihf.rwth-aachen.de/pub/NetBSD/kernels/ There are a few in there that you may wish to try (see the README files). Good luck, Zachary E.
