Public bug reported:
Some systems refuse to boot our ppc64el CD images, dropping to a GRUB
prompt. This is because I set the GRUB prefix in d-i to
(ieee1275/cdrom)/boot/grub to work around a different failure, but not
all systems have the ieee1275/cdrom devalias. Setting ()/boot/grub
instead works on the system where I originally had this problem, and
should fix the other hardware in question too.
Bug originally reported by Paulo F. Smorigo.
