We have tested them on a Power7 box as well as on an older Apple G5, but
your mileage may vary. Especially on Power5 and Power6 the problem still
exists that the unified initramfs of Anaconda is too large to fit into
the initial RAM during bootup, so you'll need to revert to the method
described in the next paragraph.
Have we actually switched all userspace to 64-bit on 64-bit machines?
That would exacerbate the initrd size issue quite a lot, wouldn't it?
As well as being significantly less well-tested than the 32-bit support
was.
Are the ExcludeArch trackers still up to date for ppc and ppc64? Is
there an estimate of how many packages are not built for ppc64 that
*are* built for ppc32?
