Changes (by erikd):

  * version:  7.0.3 => 7.5


Comment:

 Turns out the working machine has a G4 CPU which is 32 bits, but does have
 Altivec instructions. The non-working machine is a G5 which is 64 bit
 (running a 64 bit kernel and all 32 bit user space code). The G5 is not
 able to boot a 32 bit kernel.
