Mauro, buddy, take it easy.

I think you might have gotten to the wrong place accidentally.  this 
mailing list is pretty much for developers.  we tried to get decent 
documentation available on the internet, but from your confusion it 
looks like we missed the boat.  The PPC platform isn't a priority for 
fBSD, and as such isn't fully supported.  If you want to run a 
non-Apple OS and need it now, NetBSD is a really strong and capable 
machine.  If you want to help out with fBSD development on PPC, then 
you've found the right place.  Dag isn't trying to be a jerk, but we 
get a lot of people who wander in here without looking at anything else 
clamoring about weather or not their particular box is supported, and 
the answer is that none of them are.  If you're willing to give the 
test environment a shot, there are directions and some images that 
peter grehan has put together, but it's not a full release yet. I 
believe that if you look through the archives you can find all of this 
information and more about the current status of the fBSD Port.  Their 
location currently escapes me, but google knows.

Hope this information helps,

-James
