	Good news. I just tested the current testing netboot build (12-Feb-2010) from:

http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-powerpc/current/images/powerpc64/netboot/

	The installation was sucesfull without any modification. The ps3 net
card was recognized and configured. The only thing is the message of the
installer that no suitable kernel image package can be found, and that
no bootloader was installed. I just install manually the kernel and
configure the yaboot.conf.

	Next I will try the squeeze_di_alpha1.

	Regards.
