Hi Jeremy,

good to hear that the CD-project will get a bit pushed...

I got an (old) IBM-RS6000 (43p-150) and had a huge trouble to boot it with a 
Linux-CD.  Finally it worked with a OpenSuSE-10.2-Mini-PPC. The biggest 
challange was to get the system installed that at least the ssh daemon 
becomes operational. Than i could use ssh for doing cLFS. Until this moment, 
I had to use my Lappy connected to the RS6000 by serial cable (for the serial 
console). Ever tried to run Yast2 via serial console? Hahaha... Btw, it seems 
that the graphic cards (GXT3000, GXT2000) are mostly unusable by Linux :-(

Long story, short nice-to-have:  Please add serial-console-support (if not 
builtin yet)

Cheers,
Thomas
