Hi Dennis,
11.1 (latest release) should run stable on the G5. I run current on mine,
dated back to March.

Dear FreeBSD :
I am trying to install a reasonably stable operating system of some
sort into a PowerMac G5 unit. There seems to be very little left on the
planet that will work. I could try some Linux out there but I would like
to stay with a "UNIX" type system. I have now yet looked at the OpenBSD
types and I don't even know if there is a stable build for ye old super
PowerPC64 anyways.
So where would I look to make some bootable DVD's to see if I can
install FreeBSD on this PowerMac G5 ? Is the 8.1 release really the
last one that can work in a stable fashion ?
Dennis
