Closing bugs which are no longer relevant because content is no longer existing
in the installation-guide (due to no longer supported powerpc archs/machines):

#233864	[powerpc] document need for BootX on oldworld
#273994	provide download-url for MacOS 7.5 as bootloader on oldworld
#717657	Bug#717511: installation-guide-powerpc: describe boot partiton layout constraints for Pegasos machines


Also closing this one:
#515249	installation-reports: Various issues on IBM Power5 (lvm, multipath, yaboot.conf)
because it's a left-over clone from #537590.
