I only modified the yaboot package. From what I gathered regarding this
update, yaboot-installer will need a small change too for Pegasos
(partition numbering changed) but I don't think there is anyone left
(and still active) to test on that arch anyway.

I am not the one who built the images, it's Zsombor. And we actually
realized it's tricky to test new bootloaders :-)

Thanks a lot for this information, I was looking for something like
that.
