The distribution should also contain the drivers.tgz archive, at least it does
for me.
As notice, powerpc-specials/bootstrap-apus.tgz contains the ppc/apus bootstrap
program, as well as dmesg and bootmesg. This bootstrap program is also able to
boot debian/m68k on amiga subarch. Maybe we should/could share the archive ?
