Try the daily netboot images from :

  http://people.debian.org/~luther/d-i/images/daily/powerpc64/netboot64/

They include the needed yaboot stuff to netboot the images, so just move the
whole dir to a tftp server on your network, or use the mini.iso.

I am not sure what happened to the cd image built, as you may know, i was
replaced as d-i powerpc maintainer, and have thus not be following issues in
much detail.
