Right, and that suggests to me that it's not an *installer* issue, but at 
most a bootloader configuration problem for the CDs.

As I've said before, I (and most others on the Installer team) have zero 
knowledge of powerpc. Please try to find out what's wrong or needed on the 
d-powerpc list where all the port experts hang out. If a needed change is 
identified we'll be happy to help get it implemented.
