Hi Pasi,
We should point out that this is a ppc32 compile for older RS6000's and
non Apple Mac based 32bit ppc hardware. And is a derevative build.
The CentOS4/ppc rebuild is going to be fully RHEL4 compatible with the
ppc64/ppc shared code base ( which works on Apple Mac's, pSeries and
iSeries ). But does not boot on rs6k machines - unless we drop the ppc64
patch on yaboot. And untill we can demonstrate that the patch is no
longer required on ppc64 h/w - I'm keeping it in.
