Hi,

Peter 'p2' De Schrijver has made some new updates to the quik - you can get it 
(.deb and source) at the http://www.ulyssis.org/~p2/debjes/

changes include:
 - manpage tells about initrd
 - compiles with gcc3
 - sprintf bug fixed
 - ANS raid support

quik with initrd has been tested on
- - ANS (Peter 'p2' De Schrijver)
- - PMac 4400/200 (me)
- - PMac 6500/250 (Romain Francoise)
- - PMac 7200/90 (Peter 'p2' De Schrijver, me)
- - PMac 9500 (Jaakko Niemi)
- - PMac Beige G3 Rev II (Simon Vallet)

If you got an(other) oldworld machine, please test this quik while installing 
the latest kernel-image-2.6.8-powerpc.deb (contains an initrd).

Nobody mentioned to have tried with less than 32mb ram, if you do, please 
report your results as well.

Still on the todo list - should be done as fast as possible to be able to 
achieve the goal of inclusion in sarge.. ;-)
