If you have some knowledge about these machines and the architecture, it
would be helpful to support our effort to build "boot-floppies"[1] to
bootstrap these boxes.  Apart from that, there are quite some packages
that require special action until they work on such machines, this would
mean debugging etc.

[1] The package is called that way, even if it's quite unlikely that there
    will be real floppy images for these machines.
