Known problem. I fixed this for Efika, but for some reason my fix didn't work for PowerMac. Anyway, first of all I'd verify that if you revert to CVS version before this commit: 2007-02-21 Hollis Blanchard (both of them, actually) it works again. I believe the kern/powerpc/ieee1275/init.c part of things doesn't need to be touched again after: 2007-10-07 Robert Millan and that the problem affecting PowerMac was introduces with the rest of Hollis commit (that would be grub-mkimage.c ?). -- Robert Millan I know my rights; I want my phone call! What use is a phone call, if you are unable to speak? (as seen on /.)
