I'm trying to get OpenBSD/4.3 working on my old Mac G4 PCI 400Mhz (Yikes!) without much luck. Between the IDE timing out on writes and the ethernet (bm0) going down I've been unable to even get to a point where I can start to debug the machine. So, I was wondering if anyone could recommend an ethernet chipset that works with OpenBSD on the Mac (Realtek, etc.)? What I'd like to do is NFS boot the machine and then I can debug the IDE and bm0 driver (even placing the bm0 in 10M/full it still drops out). I found this old thread: http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-ppc&m=119737531605505&w=2 where Bruce O'Neel asks "I think it would be quite interesting to know if the Yikes G4 works. This is otherwise known as G4 PCI Graphics. http://apple-history.com/?page=gallery&model=g4pci&performa=off&sort=dat e&order=ASC" So far, the answer is no but I'd certainly like to change that if I can get the machine up long enough to rebuild the kernel! ;-) Thanks! don |
