Well, I'm installing DragonFlyBSD 1.0A on VirtualPC 6.1 on a 12" G4 Powerbook right now. Seems to be going along without fail. FreeBSD 5.2.1 seemed to hang on probing for devices. So this is a step up :-)

I'm not sure about VirtualPC 6.1 for Mac, but FreeBSD 5.2.1 often needed you to disable ACPI before it would work. I believe updated ACPI support (which DragonFly uses as well) resolves this issue.


There was also an APIC issue with VMware at some point, but I'm not sure on the status of that; it required you to disable APIC in the VMware config.
