I need to check the pre-built fedore busybox contain all the options needed by
mindi. I'll look at it and report.

Concerning ppc, have you really looked at what mindi does ? It you want to port
it, then propose patches upstream, but I do not have any time nor hardware to do
that myself sorry. 
Do you ask for elilo to be available on ppc too ?
mindi deals with boatloading and then has a lot of dependancies with
lilo/syslinux/isolinux/elilo which means that you really need to adapt it for
ppc if you want it to work on power.

I also wanted to add that you do NOT provide a disaster recovey solution for
fedora currently whereas I have add much less problem to integrate mindi and
mondo in Mandriva, OpenSuSE or Debian. I try to follow the requirements you give
for the spec file, but can't follow when you deal with porting, internals of the
tool ... which are upstream concerns not packaging concerns.

Now if the goal is to avoid adding packages to fedora, I would prefer a clear
opinion on that.
