basically the system freezes during boot once
drn nouveau is loaded. here's dmesg captured

You need the firmware, it's not carried in the upstream tree.[1]
There's also a PPC-specific patch currently in the Nouveau tree and on
various lists that you need to apply.[2]

alright, I'll look for this firmware, and then go from there.
