I'm attempting to install onto a G4 Cube with a busted CD-ROM drive.
I've never done network booting before, so I'm sure I'm just missing
something.
I set up NFS and TFTP on a linux box, copied ofwboot to the TFTP share
and bsd.rd plus all the tgz files to the NFS share.
In Open Firmware, I'm setting:
default-server-ip -> ip of linux box
root-path -> "x.x.x.x:/path/to/nfs/share"
next-server -> ip of linux box
and then:
boot enet:,ofwboot /bsd.rd
The TFTP part seems to be working. I get:
OpenBSD/macppc BOOT 1.6
but then:
open(/pci@f4000000/ethernet:/etc/boot.conf): Unknown error: code 60
boot>
cannot open /pci@f4000000/ethernet:/etc/random.seed: Unknown error:
code 60
booting /pci@f4000000/ethernet:/bsd.rd: open
/pci@f4000000/ethernet:/bsd.rc: Unknown error: code 60 failed(60). will
try /bsd
boot>
..and then it fails to boot bsd
Am I required to set up a DHCP server, too?
Hello, I had the same problem 2 years ago :
http://misc.openbsd.narkive.com/uSQMW0M5/need-help-to-install-openbsd-5-9-macppc-via-pxe
try with root-path "/path/to/nfs/share"
in fact, if I remember well, the TFTP boot will use
$next-server:/$root-path so you don't
need to put the ip in root-path.
