tested. a little bit late, but tested. same error, dbootstrap startup
and the *first* thingie on the screen is the error "This arch is not yet
supported." then machine reboots. i can install everything by hand,
i already did it, but... where can i find a ramdisk that at least give
me a shell?

thank you very much,
federico
 
p.s. i am planning to do some serious boot-disk hacking on powermac,
when i have at least *one* machine installed...
