OK. I can certainly help with PowerMac CD, i am the one who came with
the procedure for making bootable PowerMac CDs anyway.
powerpc is unfortuntly a rather diverse archetecture, atm our cds are
only bootable on PowerMacs and maybe PReP. i don't know much about
PReP but PowerMac i can do.

ok, that may explain why people keep saying the CDs don't boot
anymore. i will see what i can do about mkisofs, i think i can call
it with a couple different options to work around its alleged bugs.
