Marc,

Re booting the Classic II:

==> You can boot with a serial console ...  I have a kernel that boots at
==> my home page.  It is called "for.mays", probably also on puma.
==> see http://orca.vub.ac.be/~mcoevoet/macbsd/index.html

Many, many thanks for this.  I got much further than before.
Unfortunately, it didn't finish the boot process.  If it's of any use to
anyone, the last bit of the output (including a little from db) is below.
If anyone wants to pursue this, I have the full transcsript, although there
isn't much of interest - there was a little disk cleaning up, but not much
more.

Is this of any use?  I am more than willing to experiment further to get
more information if anyone wants it!

Yours,

Andrew
