I tried the new installation floppy on a G3 powermac with ADB keyboard.
The good point is that, it does allow you to issue the enter command and
install the root floppy image. The bad point is that network install
(nfs/network) is broken. Worse, I when I insert  the floppy for taken
form powermac directory driver-1.img, it request me a different
floppy...

Any idea?
