Hi!
I have resurrected my PowerBook G4 12" to make some test installs. :)
This was the opportunity to see how to move powerpc to kernel 2.6.26-1.
I have compared the module list between 2.6.25-2 and 2.6.26-1 and did
not notice any powerpc specific changes, except that the -powerpc-miboot
flavour was dropped.
The attached patch is the result of this upgrade. I was able to make a
successful installation using the resulting kernel udebs.
Cheers,
