--- Comment #5 from Mark Millard <[email protected]> --- Nathan Whitehorn has put out a kernel patch that he is asking for help with testing on PowerMac/iMac G5 variations. See: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ppc/2016-September/008413.html The patch is not just using __powerpc64__ instead of POWERMAC_G5_SPECIFIC_BUILD in my presentation of my hack. Nathan has already tested a PowerMac11,2. If anyone reading this has any other type(s) of Apple G5's and is willing/able it would be good to get in some testing before the change is made to the kernel. I expect that it does not mater much which version/variation of 10.x, 11.0, or 12 is used if the original boot problems can sometimes be observed before the change. Although I'm not sure of the patch automatically applies nicely to all possible vintages of those. As for me. . . It will be a few weeks before I'll again have access in order to test a PowerMac7,2 (or to independently repeat PowerMac11,2 testing). I'll not have access to other Apple G5's. So my range of testing will be rather limited and will not be soon. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
