Subject: update about rs6k arch install report

Hi,
on the web page: http://www.debian.org/ports/powerpc/inst/install
the status for RS6000 7248 is not yet tested, so I would like to report
the
successfull install and use of Debian Potato and now Woody on an IBM
RS6000 7248-133.

I got no particular problem exect for the video card which needs a patch
available here:
http://www.amberdata.demon.co.uk/carolina/

Now I am trying to install on a Performa 6400...

cu
Dams.

I've another successfull install report on RS6000 7248-100, but that was a
mixture of linuxppc rescue (kernel) floppy and the debian ramdisk floppy.

The main reason for this is the missing carolina-patch(es) for Prep-Machines
in the debian-prep-kernel.
