Hi :) regarding ppc boards,oh, i didn't know that actually i'm a 22yo newbie guy which is interested in u-boot because i do study information systems in Brazil and i'm doing a linux distro for thin clients(as a final course project->monograph+software) and i got interested in u-boot because it seems the *correct* bootloader for my project ie: it seems far smaller than other ones and at once offers many features :) and i also studied/setup grub/lilo/syslinux :) i need to compare bootloaders and write down the features of each one and show which bootloader is better for each case ie: which one has 'best' features for diskless boot; which one is better for local boot(size, 'dinamyc configuration(ie: pass parameter on the fly)',...,...; ...
