Mmm, i would like to know :
1) which kernel do you use.
2) have a look at this config file.
And maybe ask you to contribute a bit and to try building the official
powerpc kernel so that they will boot on your box, and contribute back
your experience about it.
I am not entirely sure if the linuxppc-2.4 tree i am following will be
enough and if i should switch to the -benh trees or not, but it would be
really nice if we could support these machines by default when sarge is
released.
