IBM RS/6000 B50: failure (with comments)

Hi,
last week I had the opportunity to do a quick test of d-i on a few sparc
and powerpc machines at my former workplace.
Here is how it went on a IBM RS/6000 B50
It really did not go well at all. I tried two different B50s, but both
gave me this, when it tried to boot off the RC1 netinst CD:

Booting AIX works fine on both machines.
I will not be able to test again on a B50 for some time, unfortunately,
but let me know if you want me to try a different way of booting it (or
other suggestions) the next time, I get the opportunity to test it
(hopefully within a few weeks).
Best regards,
