miBoot's author told me that the version I packaged (the one which has
no license), was old stuff I shouldn't bother with. However the new
stuff needs special kernel images and doesn't work for me. I told him
that and I'm waiting his answer.

Changes to the build/ directory:
	http://sprite.fr.eu.org/d-i-oldworld/build-patch.diff
	http://sprite.fr.eu.org/d-i-oldworld/build-newfiles.tar.gz

miBoot and rsrce package:
	deb-src http://sprite.fr.eu.org/dist/debian

I don't think commiting the patch would break anything, but I hacked the
top-level Makefile a bit, so please review my changes before doing so.
Also, all_build won't work anymore for powerpc unless you comment out
the added MEDIUM_SUPPORTED in config/powerpc.cfg (or something similar.)

And just to be sure: please don't upload the packages yet, there's some
crap left and still no license for miBoot.
