That would be great; grub is brilliant on i386 and to have it on PPC'd
be very nice. Grub2 must be a big challenge, though. For example,
displaying text on PPC is much more complicated as I gather that PPC
machines don't have something similar to the legacy pure text mode of
PCs. I will have to look up how it's being developed; sounds like quite
a challenging thing to make cross-platform!
After my degree is over soon and I have some time on my hands I may try
using it when I put Linux over the whole disk.
