Yep, that's about right. I will implement that later today. Thanks for pointing
me at that.
I have patched partman-prep now [1]. Interestingly, it used to have ppc64
support and it was removed [2].
Good news: With partman-prep enabled on ppc64 and after adding the hack to wipe
and find the PREP partition on powerpc and ppc64 in grub-installer [1], the
installation of GRUB on ppc64 works now out of the box on my POWER7 system \o/.
One can simply install GRUB on these systems now by choosing "Back" in the
yaboot-installer menu and then choosing to install GRUB.
Now we only need to get it working on NewWorld Macs :).
