Arch or darcs may be better better solutions here. darcs sound like more
simple to use.

Yep, guessed such. Ideally, we would integrate the appleboot stuff with the
arch/ppc/boot stuff directly, sounds cleaner, but well.
I have built a kernel, and put it at :
http://people.debian.org/~luther/Mach Kernel
could you download it an try booting with it just to make sure ? It contains a
random initrd image, so it will fail in the end, but i want to make sure it
will boot or something.
BTW, i can possibly get hands on a 68k mac, but i have some fear that it might
be 040LC based, no chance to run linux on this one, right ?
