Unfortunately this commit has broken PowerPC boot using the Quik
bootloader. CD-ROM boot is not affected. This can easily be reproduced
using the image from:
http://people.debian.org/~aurel32/qemu/powerpc/debian_lenny_powerpc_small.qcow2
I have tried with the latest available revision, and the problem is
still there. Does anyone has an idea of the problem before I start
debugging it?
