Unfortunately this commit has broken PowerPC boot using the Quik
bootloader. CD-ROM boot is not affected. This can easily be reproduced
using the image from:
http://people.debian.org/~aurel32/qemu/powerpc/debian_lenny_powerpc_small.qcow2
I have tried with the latest available revision, and the problem is
still there. Does anyone has an idea of the problem before I start
debugging it?

Ah okay, that'll be part of my recent tidy-up work - let me take a quick
look. Thanks for the test image as that will really help :)
ATB,
Mark.

Thanks for the report - this should now be fixed as of OpenBIOS r821.
