Ok, we could get rid of quik-installer or yaboot-installer with that, but 
bootloaders have their features (being able to boot different kernels).

Do I understand the (oldworld) powerpc boot process correctly, that to make 
boot-disks for d-i, we would have to create a hfs-floppy (like the ones build 
for/with miboot) which now contains a vmlinux blessed by mkvmlinuz ?
