Given the Mac-centric nature of the port at the moment I'm not sure how
well it'd go booting on an IBM system.  I'd offer to look into making it
work if you could provide a serial console and a system to netboot it
from but I'm having enough trouble making time to work on the port in
general at the moment.

If you're willing to get your hands dirty I'd be happy to try to help
you as much as I can to get it running yourself...
