Perhaps this is a bit off-topic, but what is the status of the hurdppc project? About GRUB: PUPA is what you need, like other people on this list already told you. I'm willing to work on this, actually I already started with some stuff. This includes the PPC port when the PC version works. Barry deFreese is also interested in a PPC port. Please be warned, I don't have as much time as I used to have. Being ill and having a lot of school work means less time for hacking. :( Anyway, around Christmas I should have some time. We can even work on this together, or you can continue the hurdppc work and wait for me. > So i am going to extend the multiboot standard taking care about ppc > specifics.

If we use the Open Firmware client interfaces it won't be difficult (compared to the PC implementation for example). > PD: I am now to this mailing list.
