Bug Description
On Debian PPC, Ethernet works perfectly, and messages relating to "ibmebus" are in dmesg. Ubuntu setup cannot see the Ethernet adapter, and to install Ubuntu I had to connect a USB Ethernet dongle.
I get the feeling that the ibmebus driver is missing from the kernel, and I've attached a file that the bug reporter created with the dmesg log from Ubuntu.
