Consider this a good report. I will probably roll my changes in a couple
days if my testing goes well. I've been running lots of installs on my
PowerPC PReP hardware with no major problems using my changes to CVS.
Some of my trouble was lack of understanding of boot-floppies (it has a
little bit of a learning curve :). There seem to be some Makefile
dependency problems here and there since some things don't get remade when
needed. Things seem to basically work, though. I still see some
features that need help like the nfs install process.
