Hi,

As of yesterday I was the proud owner of an old Powerbook G3 PDQ.  
This means that as of last night I was trying to install NetBSD
on said machine.

The boot command on the model support page,  boot ide1/@0:0,\OFWBOOT.XCF,
seems not to boot from the NetBSD 2.0 CD-Rom that I had sitting around.  
It did switch to a solid gray screen with a circle with a cross line
on it (think European no parking sign in gray), but that was it.

I tired a few other choices both from google searches and from
devalias open firmware commands, but, no luck.

Is there something special to boot this or should I just netboot
and install that way.

Thanks in advance!

cheers

bruce
