i realize this is not the powerpc list, but before i go and register for
yet one more email-list...

last night i was attempting to install 6.2 on a G4 cube i have.  (6.0
would not install, it would only panic when loading the kernel from the
install disc).  6.2 seemed to make it all the way to the partition label
editor, but i could not delete the existing linux partitions.  i would
like to remove those ext3 partitions, and replace them with the FreeBSD
default partition setup.  when i hit D, i get a message something like
"that function is not used here right now" or something to that effect.

can anyone on this list have any experience with powerpc freebsd?

cheers,
jonathan
