Right now i was fighting with the yaboot stuff, and te fact that the ofpath
that yaboot-installer relies on is too buggy to rely on on anything but
powermac, and that we should instead use the newer ofpathname from ibm's
powerpc-utils.

That said, Frans, don't you think it is more than time to let all those
childisnhess aside, on both side, and normalize our relationship, and give me
svn access again ? 

Friendly,

Sven Luther
