I still can't get the FBSD 6.0 mini ISO to boot on my 500AU, regardless
of which drive I try (I've tried 3, 2 of them being writers, 1 of them a
modern DVD-RW/CD-RW).

The NetBSD 3.0 installer boots just fine

Could it be that the 6.0 bootloader is incompatible with whatever
release of the SRM firmware I have, or that the kernel is too big to
load?

NetBSD was burnt using the same type of media as FreeBSD was, and I
tried burning the FreeBSD installer multiple times on multiple OSes
using multiple different pieces of software.

The message I'm getting is:
