I don't know, if it's related to this change, but Pegasos PPC does not 
boot any more. It worked fine with factory boot.ppc.iso from Wednesday. 
Part of dmesg from a 10.0 kernel:
"serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1
Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled
ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A
"
Booting failed just after the "Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 
$ 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled". I tested SuSE 10.1 beta1 mini bood CD, 
the latest factory boot.ppc.iso and SLES 10 CD1 as well. Where should I 
report it? A "SuSE linux 10.1" and/or as a "SLES 10" bug?
