Hi all,
As part of my work on QEMU I regularly test various PPC images, and I've
discovered that the latest debian ports powerpc image from
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/9.0/powerpc/iso-cd/ doesn't
appear to work under QEMU:
$ ./qemu-system-ppc -cdrom debian-9.0-powerpc-NETINST-1.iso -boot d -M
mac99 -nographic

Welcome to yaboot version 1.3.17

My existing Jessie test image (debian-8.5.0-powerpc-netinst.iso) works
fine, so it looks like there is a regression somewhere in the boot
loader configuration. Does anyone know what has changed between these
two images that could cause this to break?
ATB,
Mark.
