And you will also find ppc64 aware d-i images in :

  http://people.debian.org/~luther/ppc64/d-i

And starting tomorrow, i will build daily builds of those, which will be
available at :

  http://people.debian.org/~luther/d-i/ppc64.

The main problem being that the images in question will fail to install, since
the -pseries .udebs are not in the archive and thus you will have to
hand-point d-i to http://people.debian.org/~luther/d-i/ppc64/udeb or something
such (not yet uploaded there, but will happen by tomorrow).
