-tomem:
-	Loads kernel and whole image in yaboot, then starts system normally.
-	After booting CDROM will not be needed anymore. Requires 128Mb or
-	more of ram. Should work with cdroms not connected to pmac-ide too.
-	Options: all but "stop"

-fromcd:
-	Loads kernel and initrd, starts system. In initrd searches for cdrom,
-	mounts it and mounts image from it. CDROM will be needed (and blocked)
-	as image is not copied to memory. Should run with 32Mb of RAM.

-tomempost:
-	Like 'fromcd' loads kernel and initrd, starts system. In initrd
-	searches for cdrom, mounts it, and then, copies image to root cd
-	and mounts it from there. Umounts CDROM so drive can be used.
-	Requires 128Mb of ram. Works only with cdroms connected to pmac-ide.
-	This option should run faster than 'tomem' if you have DMA switched
-	on, try adding ide1=ata66 or something similar (check ide help).

-memtest:
-	Loads kernel and initrd. Searches for cdrom and mounts image as root
-	(/) read-only, umounts initrd and flushes ramdisk. Starts memtester
-	with all memory minus 3Mb and reduces amount by 0.5Mb until memtester
-	will not be killed.
-	Options:
-		 module= or modpre= cmdline option which loads specified
-		      modules
-		 debug - starts shell
