docsnyderchristoph:
This was actually the first time I compile a kernel under ubuntu - with 
creating a .deb: maybe i could post the deb here for people to try?
I used this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
what you want to do is get the source from the hardy repository (linux-source 
package i think) and untar it in /usr/src. You would need to install the tools 
as explained in that guide. Use 'make menuconfig' find these configurations and 
enable them as compiled in (* instead of M). afterwards run the command from 
the guide to build the kernel into a deb and just install it. 

Now this bug was just marked as fixed and it seems it was indeed fixed
in ubuntu git kernel a few days ago - so I'm supposing the next version
released will boot OK on our powerpc machines. Unfortunately I seem to
have other regressions with it, but it's for another place, and it would
be good when more people can test it... :)
