Description Hiroshi Takenaka 2014-01-02 16:27:26 UTC 
I'm trying to install gentoo on iMac DV (G3) with an IEEE1394 hard disk.
However, the kernel in the install-powerpc-minimal-20131229 does not support IEEE1394.

less config.gz told me:
# CONFIG_FIREWIRE is not set

Are there any install-powerpc-minimals which support IEEE1394, or do you have a kindness to prepare an install-powerpc-minimal which supports IEEE1394?

Best regards,

The next livecd kernel should have firewire support.
