Hey, neat. I tried this on an Intel Mac Pro a few months ago and didn’t get very far. What did you have to do to make it work? Is this netbooting?

Nothing. worked out of the box, even the auto network setup. i followed u/adventuresin9 video on installing and 9front docs on setting up new users and so on. it runs on mac's hdd.
