I did some testing on Power Architecture systems - to be precise:
CPU Board
--------------------------
MPC860T TQM860L
MPC5200 TQM5200S
PPC405EX Kilauea
PPC440EP Yosemite
PPC440EX Sequoia
PPC440SPe Katmai
PPC460EX Canyonlands
On all boards I verified at least environment access (printenv,
saveenv) and network operation (TFTP download); where available also
PCI. Everything appears to work fine, no problems noted.
A well done job, thanks a lot!
For the whole series:

Certain old men prefer to rise at dawn, taking a cold bath and a long
walk with an empty stomach and otherwise mortifying the flesh. They
then point with pride to these practices as the cause of their sturdy
health and ripe years; the truth being that they are hearty and old,
not because of their habits, but in spite of them. The reason we find
only robust persons doing this thing is that it has killed all the
others who have tried it. - Ambrose Bierce, "The Devil's Dictionary"
