No progress, but I will prepare a PReP boot.iso for 10.2
beta1.

Hi Olaf,

I had assumed that PReP support was broken in the kernel. 
Is this true
and/or still the case?  Are any of the SuSE components
broken in regards
to PReP?

Thanks,

Wade

The PReP support in the kernel is still there, below
arch/ppc/.
But we build our kernels from arch/powerpc/. The PReP
support and many
of the embedded targets have not been ported over to
arch/powerpc.

I havent tested a 10.2 install on PReP yet, we are still
waiting for the
next usable snapshot.
