Hi Darren!
I'm not a developer, but this has been up before so I'll jump in anyway.
Support for the Pegasos is not planned or worked on at the moment.
This is in part (or more likely only) because of the Pegasos different
implementation of OpenFirmware.

Here's one of the later replies from Peter Grehan on the subject

Sorry to put you down.
