i've got some questions regarding the ppc-specific entries:

powerpc
        basic netinst cd
        basic businesscard cd				ok
        floppy + cd [not newworld]
        floppy + network [not newworld]
        netboot
        using pcmcia network card
        32 mb ram
        48 mb ram


1. is it true, that if 32mb ram installs work, 48mb will always work, too ?

2. I think "oldworld" would be less confusing than "not newworld" ? generally 
I would prefer to refer to the exact subarch...
