PowerBook G3 (Pismo/Firewire) Install CD Hangs

[Shinobi_1986]

The exact same result as just boot -v unfortunately:

Hi,
I have a similar problem with booting freebsd9.0 powerpc64 from CD on my
iMac G5 iSight (2.1GHz/20"/2.5GB RAM).

It also stops booting at this line:
sc0: Unknown <16 virtual consoles, flags=0x300>

These are the last 10 lines if I do a verbose boot:
ds17752: <Temp-Monitor DS1775> at addr 0x94 on iicbus2
iicbus2: <unknown card> at addr 0xd4
iichb3: <SMU I2C controller> on smu0
iicbus3: <OFW I2C bus> on iichb3
sc1: no video adapter found.
sc1: no video adapter found.
nexus0: <aliases>, type (unknown) (no driver attached)
sc0: <System console> on nexus0
sc0: Unknown <16 virtual consoles, flags=0x300>
sc0: fb0, kbd0, terminal emulator: scteken (teken terminal)

Does someone know a reason why it stopps booting? Might it have something to
do with the message that it doesnt find a video adapter, and does someone
know how to fix this problem?
I hope someone can help, I would love to see freebsd running on my imac.
Thanks in advance.
