 Replying to [comment:8 robatino]:
 > but name the ISOs by subarch (so Fedora-12-power4-DVD.iso instead of
 Fedora-12-ppc-DVD.iso, for > example)?

 Naming it that would be wrong.  The ppc DVD works on Apple G4, Apple G5,
 ppc970, POWER4, POWER5, POWER6, and Cell based machines.  'Fedora-12-ppc-
 DVD.iso' is the only thing that sums that up, though it doesn't match
 uname -i output on several of those machines.  (PPC is weird in terms of
 'basearch').
