- From the project's Web site:

3 July, 2002 : This page has been significantly updated. FreeBSD/PowerPC currently boots almost to the point of reaching single-user mode.

As you can see, that statement is quite dated.  Is it still "almost...
reaching single-user mode?"

I've been interested in running FreeBSD/ppc on my 17" PowerBook G4---in
multi-user mode, of course.  Is this possible at this point, or am I
just fantasizing? ;-)

Cheers!
