CRUX PPC (32bit) 2.7a

It's mainly a bug fix release altought it also extendes the support to Acube Sam460ex.

Fixes:
- pmac32: this boot kernel fixes an issue that prevents to boot on very old G3 and dual G4 machines and qemu too;
- pegasos2: this boot kernel fixes an issue that prevents to use ps/2 keyboards and mice.

As our Pegasos2 is still unserviceable (rif. topic 1928) i need your help to test this bootkernel.
I need to know if it boots properly and if both ps/2 and usb keyboards are working.

To boot on PegasosII systems you have to access the SmartFirmware prompt and type:

Code:

boot cd ppc/pegasos2/zImage.chrp root=/dev/sr0

Here this test ISO:

Code:
