Anything that uses NewWorld ROMs should work fine with GRUB. I don’t see how 
and why Yaboot should be better and more stable.

I find that statement a bit unfair given the fact that we’re doing all this 
work with limited resources and time and in our leisure time.

I have already explained that I am currently in the process of moving and once 
that all has settled, I will be able to pull out my PowerPC collection to 
perform tests and commit changes.

It doesn’t really make much sense to work on the GRUB stuff when I don’t have 
access to test hardware to test changes.

Please be a bit more patient. I will have moved by the end of February.
