The OF of my LongTrail works perfectly but i don't know how to set it up for
autobooting. Booting from floppy is not (yet) possible (for initrd) because
the kernel cannot read the floppy. So net or cd booting are the only choices.
Currently i wait for manoj's update for his kernel-package with my changes. After
that, compiling will be easier. But then i need kernel-diffs for apus, pmac, prep
and also mbx for the 2.2.x tree. Which class is rs/6000, chrp or prep?
Thnx,
Hartmut
