Yes, the kernel has default configs for several machines in
arch/ppc/configs
You can either cp that to .config and do make oldconfig, or, with 2.6
do make pmac_defconfig (or with 2.4, make pmac_config)

I don't think the defconfig is specific to ppc, though we do have a very
broad range of different machines to deal with, unlike x86.
