Interesting! I'll test it ASAP.

Bernard, which distro did you install in your PS3? the YDL5? it would be great
to have a Debian or Ubuntu to build both RPMs and DEBs and kill two birds with a
stone. Anyway, yesterday I've finished to prepare my PS3 with a Kubuntu 7.10
(installed from CD), but the build of the systemimager packages failed due to
some issues in the Makefile to properly detect the ppc64-ps3 arch: with the
ubuntu kernel there's not the PS3PF string in /proc/cpuinfo, but there's only
PS3, and it falls back to a normal ppc64 arch.

Tonight I'll try to fix this issue and clone this ubuntu image. In this way I'll
be able to both test systemimager and build the packages using the same image.
