What is the real status of port-ofppc?  I also have access to CHRP systems
such as 7026-H50, 7043-150, and other IBM hardware (including RS64, POWER3,
POWER4, and POWER5 systems).

That's fine - I'll work on getting these 7025 systems configured for
remote developer access (including console and power control) so they
are ready when you (or other interested prep developers) are.

Thanks for providing this info - I'll work on this and get back to you.
