<p>Note: The installation instructions above create a filesystem |

997 |
|
root device (default wd0a): <b>wd0c</b> |
998 |

<p>Known bugs/problems: |

|
|
1005 |
|
<ul> |
1006 |
|
<li>There is a long delay when starting up NetBSD/netwinder |
1007 |
|
(several seconds even on a very fast host machine), |
1008 |
|
so you need to be patient. |
1009 |
|
<li>There is a minor bug in the keyboard device, so you need to |
1010 |
|
press a key (any key) before typing wd0c. |
1011 |
|
<li>When halting/rebooting NetBSD/netwinder, the emulator |
1012 |
|
prints a message saying something about an internal |
1013 |
|
error. This doesn't matter; ignore the message. |

It is <font color="#ff0000"><b>ALMOST</b></font> possible to install and run |
Old versions of Windows NT could run on MIPS hardware, e.g. |
2296 |
<a href="http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/macppc/">NetBSD/macppc</a> in GXemul |
the PICA 61. It is theoretically possible that the emulation provided by |
2297 |
on an emulated generic PowerPC machine. No specific Machintosh model |
GXemul some day could be stable/complete enough to emulate |
2298 |
is emulated, but it is enough to for NetBSD to recognize it. |
such hardware well enough to fool Windows NT into thinking |
2299 |
|
that it is running on a real machine. |
2300 |

<font color="#ff0000">IT DOES <b>NOT</b> WORK YET!</font> |

2302 |
<p>To install NetBSD/macppc onto a disk image, follow these instructions: |
<p>Something like this would be done to install |
2303 |

|
|
2305 |
<p> |
<ol> |
2306 |
<ol start="1"> |
<li>Put a "Windows NT 4.0 for MIPS" CDROM (or similar) into |
2307 |
<li>Create an empty harddisk image, which will be the root disk |
your CDROM drive. (On FreeBSD systems, it is |
2308 |
that you will install NetBSD/macppc onto:<pre> |
usually called <tt>/dev/cd0c</tt> or similar. Change |
2309 |
<b>dd if=/dev/zero of=nbsd_macppc.img bs=1024 count=1 seek=2000000</b> |
that to whatever the CDROM is called on your system, |
2310 |

or the name of a raw .iso image. I have tried this |
2311 |

with the Swedish version, but it might work with |
2312 |

other versions too.) |
