I just installed netbsd 6.1.6 macppc on an iMac G4/700.
After first boot from hardrive, the console text is red, but as it

finishing the boot process the text turn black ((or invisible))

my black screen and I cannot see it.
If I log in ((simply typing into the keyboard with good faith that it
is
correct)) I can log in. If I hit the right commands and any red text
is
called, I can see it. But it is mostly black or invisible.
I can eject the cd drive & reboot the computer, so I know I am logging
in fine. Just can't see text.
Has anyone run into this issue before?
What kind of graphics hardware is that? I assume some sort of nvidia?
have fun

Since I cannot look it up at command line, I had to look it up via
Google.
It seems to be a "NVIDIA GeForce2 MX graphics processor with AGP 2X
support" as per
