| Stas | Hello! Joining here for my Mac G5 nixos efforts :) | 12:08:14 |
| Puna | i prefer thinking of it as a general ppc64 effort that just so happens to be done on G5 machines :) | 16:41:50 |
| Puna | more affordable & easier to come by than RS/6000 or pSeries machines | 16:43:46 |
| Stas | I am waiting for POWER8 gear to be discontinued at work to get my hands on them | 17:05:51 |
| Stas | Even helping with migration efforts ;) | 17:06:15 |
| Puna | ooh that'd be nice. do you happen to know what boot mechanism they use? i assume its nothing like the G5 or its POWER-based contemporaries (CHRP). what was it... OPAL & skiroot/skiboot? | 17:24:18 |

| Stas | They boot up very much like rs/6000 ipl | 18:27:36 |
| Stas | In my case they go to PowerVM hypervisor, but you can run AIX or any other OS | 18:28:19 |
