Modernizing a Macintosh LC III

[Patrick McCarthy <patrickjmc@gmail.com>]

Hello,

Inspired by Scott ("Getting the ol' Macintosh LC475 modernized") I 
pulled my LC III out of the closet and tried to follow along to get up 
to date. I untarred Thorsten's filesystem to /, got the initrd from 
http://zigo.mirbsd.org:8080/t/initrd.img-3.10-2-m68k and the kernel from 
http://www.freewrt.org/~tg/f/vmlinux-3.10-2-m68k.gz, and since Penguin 
said it didn't have enough memory (I have 36mb total) I put the files on 
disk and booted an emile floppy which was able to load. The boot hung 
early, however, and sat here for over an hour:

I suspect something about the disk controller, but it seems to early in 
the boot process for that. Any idea what it's choking on?

Thanks,
Patrick
