Why isn't it just console.c? It can be renamed if you think it is important.. I have chosen this name in case another type of console is required for powerpc/ieee1275. For example on the old world mac there is no console support in open firmware AFAIK. But the old world port related things do belong in powerpc/ieee1275. -- Marco
