OK, that was my fault and I got a set further now.
I hardly got a glimpse on the linux kernel output now again, because
it stopped after dumping about one screen of stuff in almost no time
with a blank screen this time. But I took my fast digital camera and
was able to capture it:
The first stage after hitting retun at the yaboot prompt (install):

Then this for about 1/10 of a second before I got black screen and
needed to power off:

It seems that the video driver is having a hard time with the new x600
card in there. (In fact, X doesn't work neither, at least not yet it
seems). In the meantime, you can probably get a console if you boot
with
video=ofonly on the kenrel command line.
