Ouch just had a bad experience booting 2.6.12-1.1398_FC4 built by
gcc 4.0.1 for Pegasos II PPC arch.
After creating zImage.initrd.chrp I'm getting gunzip errors from the kernel:
(everything is fine with gcc 3.4.x BTW)
chrpboot starting: loaded at 0x00800000
initial ramdisk moving 0x3e390000 <- 0x009cd000 (1c61f3 bytes)
gunzipping (0x00010000 <- 0x00807ce8:0x009cc710)...inflate returned
-5 msg: <NULL>

Yes - their 1 CD Pegasos installer is basically enough to partition
your hard disk and
untar a minimal YDL install - after that you are supposed to yum to
get the rest.
But, hey, that's not necessarily a bad way to do it...

1. Didn't have an installer so used one of the pre-installed Linuxen
to rsync an image over (from a PowerMac G4). With my new kernel the

yaboot
and directly by OF.
I've recently found out that YDL also doesn't have a working installer
(I was under the impression that they did, but didn't send it upstream).
They have *plans* to do that, but no plans on working about it openly
from what I gather, so we may be doing a duplication of work here
