So it fits this line :
> { "CHRP IBM,7046-B50", "chrp_rs6k" },
and it should be recognized as a chrp_rs6k, so joeyh, i believe there is
something seriously broken in rootskel, not sure though.
Harald, can you still try one thing, during the install, go to console 2, and
grep chrp in /var/lib/cdebconf/* (or well, search for the file, i think you
get the idea, the cdebconf file has an entry for the subarch field, filled in
by lib-d-i, at least it used to be this way.
Not sure about the current code, maybe that is the proble. Joeyh, waldi, can
you comment on this ?

Well, on your boxes which have logical partitioning, we need the
/proc/cpuinfo.
