Bug ID: 217375
Summary: installer: powerpc kernel reboots before reaching
installer (ibook key lime se)
Product: Base System
Version: 11.0-RELEASE
Hardware: powerpc
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: misc

This concerns
FreeBSD-11.0-RELEASE-powerpc-disc1.iso
I'm trying to boot it on an iBook Key Lime SE; one of the colorful ones but not
the earliest variety. It has 1 USB and 1 Firewire ports. CPU is a PPC750. If
you need any more info, please tell me how to find it. :) HARDWARE.HTM on the
disk itself says it boots on this machine: "All Apple PowerPC machines with
built-in USB are supported".
The bootloader appears to work. The kernel starts, I believe; switching the
display to white on black and using a larger font. Messages scroll too fast to
read on the old flat screen for a few seconds, and then the screen suddenly
goes black. Before long, Apple's boot chime is heard. That's all.
This is with the iso on CD-R in the iBook's internal drive. It's not the
original drive and is in fact the wrong model, but other live CDs work: Mac OS
9 and a couple of Linux live CDs.
