Right, most of these are probably useless on the recent powerbooks (but
not on the 3400 I guess). it's not necessary to bring the ethernet down
neither (at least with gmac. I changed bmac a bit too in my tree for that
purpose but didn't have a chance to test it yet). The driver should take
care of everything.
I think I know why the TiPB dies. Looks like the kernel doesn't properly
recognize the 7410 CPU as having an L2 cache, and so we don't properly
flush it & invalidate it. (We don't catch the altivec neither). I'm
working on a fix.
Ben.
