Could somebody point me to documentation which describes how to
generate (from source) the NetBSD boot CD for the MacPPC distribution?

The reason why I ask is that none of the MacPPC Linux distributions
are bootable from OpenFirmare like NetBSD and I would like to try to
make my own OpenFirmware bootable PPC Linux(1) CD.

I guess I need to generate a HFS type ISO file with a XCOFF bootable
install program to do this.

Any ider ideas?

TIA
Petter

1) The reason I want Linux is that I would like to run Open MCL
(Macintosh Common Lisp). See also
