 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 |

| Puna | sorry, i meant more as in: what does it look for when detecting bootable mediums? PowerMacs look for a HFS partition on an APM disk with a blessed system dir and a tbxi-blessed bootinfo file (with all-caps SGML tags). CHRP hardware (like the RS/6000 i think?) look for /ppc/bootinfo.txt on any recognised partition. skiboot i have no clue about, ppc64le ppl might now? | 20:19:03 |
| Stas | No idea, I have never installed one from scratch (yet) | 21:12:08 |
