Michel Daenzer was faster than i, see his other post.

http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-powerpc/beta3/images/powerpc/netboot/
Includes :
http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-powerpc/beta3/images/powerpc/netboot/mini.iso
Which you can simply burn on a CD and boot. Well, the netboot and the cdrom
targets both have these, but the netboot is the easiest, since it will include
the builtin changed files.
I am not sure how Michel Daenzer did it exactly though.
