[email protected] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #57 from [email protected] --- Hello, Last... December I think, I wanted to play around a bit with my g5, I tried booting freebsd on it, but without much luck. I found some forum posts or issues back then, and thought it was broken and just kind of forgot about it. Today, I saw the thing sitting under my desk again, and wanted to try it again, I saw that work has been done, and hopeful comments on the issue, so I downloaded the latest release (FreeBSD-14.3-RELEASE-powerpc-powerpc64-bootonly.iso). Sadly, I'm still having issues with it. I tried both booting from USB and also burning the image to a CD-RW, to make sure that USB-booting was not causing it, but after the kernel loads it seems to hang after initializing usb devices. I can also hear the CD spin down. The weird thing is, that (un/re) plugging the keyboard does seem to trigger something, as a new line appears with the related action, and the caps/num-lock buttons also seem to work as the LED's change. I also tried, before loading the kernel (in the bootloader?) to issue the "set hw.usb.no_boot_wait=1" and then a "boot" command, but that didn't change anything. My G5 is a dual core (pci-e, ddr2) model. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
