FreeBSD-10.1-powerpc*.iso writing issues

[Benjamin Brink]

Hi,

Anyone have issues with burning the 10.1 powerpc CD releases? Or maybe 
is there another boot sequence to use? This is for a mac G5

I verified the md5 for each iso, and can mount each iso by double 
clicking on its icon.

I've used 2 optic drives and 11 CDRs trying various burn methods: disk 
utility, hdiutil, dd, creating a dmg from iso first etc
and both iso's powerpc and powerpc64

Each time the burn seems too fast even though I chose the slowest 4x 
(and 16x) and the result is 0 files, the write is usually verified 
(unless I tried something crazy).

Usually the write session would close almost as soon as it opened.

The CD is usually bootable; but loader can't find kernel.

In each case, disk utility reports CD has a capacity of 3.2MB and 647Mb 
used (700MB physical capacity) --slightly different numbers for powerpc

Booting CD gives a "kernel not found" error.

OK ls /
/
   10_1_RELEASE_POWERPC64_CD
  10_1_RELEASE_POWERPC64_CD

   10_1_RELEASE_POWERPC64_CD
  10_1_RELEASE_POWERPC64_CD

   10_1_RELEASE_POWERPC64_CD
  10_1_RELEASE_POWERPC64_CD

OK _

boot cd:,\boot\loader cd:0
returns with something about ootoader not found

boot cd:,/boot/loader cd:0
can't find ..

boot cd:,/boot/loader cd:3
can't find ..

ls /boot
no such file or directory
