Ok,
I finally got my Power Macintosh 7300 to boot directly into Linux using quik.
What I did that got me going was to switch the Open Firmware output-device
(this from the example for 7500, 7600 and 8500 in the nvsetenv man page):
nvsetenv output-device /chaos/control
On the next boot

i helped a friend setup a 7200 with quik, it worked fine with kernel
2.2.14 and currently with 2.2.17. 2.2.15 and 2.2.16 failed. 2.2.18
is untested so far.

Hmm, I've joined this mailing list in the midlle of the conversation,
but it's always worked fine on my 7500, with and without a G3 upgrade.
I didn't succeed on a Powercenter Pro 180, but it turned out to have a
dead battery and started failing to boot up at all just about the time I
started trying
