Comments/Problems:

The install went fine - the only remaining problem is dealing with quiks
quirks with this model (see
http://penguinppc.org/bootloaders/quik/quirks.php)

I used these commands to make my machine boot.

nvsetenv boot-device     ata/ata-disk@0:0
nvsetenv boot-file       ata/ata-disk@0:0/boot/vmlinux-2.4.27-powerpc
nvsetenv input-device    kbd
nvsetenv output-device   screen
nvsetenv boot-command    boot

It should be possible to deal with some of quiks quirks by detecting the
machine type based on /proc/cpuinfo (combination of "cpu", "detected as" and
possible others should be sufficient - we "only" would need to collect that
data..), based on this the nvram could be set to the right values in quiks
postinst.


regards,
 Holger
