--- Comment #1 from Mark Millard <markmi at dsl-only.net> ---
I should have noted the specifics of the types of PowerMac G5's that my
activity with this hack has been in use on:

2 PowerMac7,11 examples, one with 16 GBytes RAM and one with 12 GBytes RAM,
each with 2 dual-core processors ("Quad core G5" examples).

1 PowerMac7,2 with 8 GBytes RAM, 2 single-core processors.


One of the worries about the hack is that other PowerMac/iMac G5 variants than
I have tested on might behave differently.

I've no evidence for any other type of PowerMac G5 variant.
