Thanks Luke for the quick reply and the pointers...

Indeed in the "thermal" hook of initramfs, the following snippet adds
the thermal modules to the initrd and pushes a bunch of modules for any
powerpc arch:

case "$DPKG_ARCH" in
# copy the right modules
powerpc|ppc64)
        force_load therm_pm72
        force_load windfarm_core
        force_load windfarm_cpufreq_clamp
        force_load windfarm_lm75_sensor
        force_load windfarm_max6690_sensor
        force_load windfarm_pid
        force_load windfarm_pm112
        force_load windfarm_pm81
        force_load windfarm_pm91
        force_load windfarm_smu_controls
        force_load windfarm_smu_sat
        force_load windfarm_smu_sensors
        force_load i2c-powermac
        ;;
i386|amd64|ia64|lpia)
        force_load fan
        force_load thermal
        ;;
esac

Now how to split this check between PS3 and Apple hardware... I will
look at other scripts / hooks.

Thanks again
