Nothing special to do. Just unplug the keyboard and boot NetBSD. When ofppc

Does it work for you with a keyboard and monitor?

Unfortunately, my machine is running without a graphics card since long. I'll have to try with keyboard and monitor at some point.

Hmm... please boot "ofwboot" instead, which will load the kernel. I remember
that I had strange problems when booting a kernel directly.

I guess that ofwboot requires a ffs filesystem to load the kernel from? Could it be netbooted?

Thanks,
