Hopefully once the new ISOs are out (sometime in the next week or so, I hear)
the wiki will be updated for both x86 and PPC (since the new ISOs will
hopefully use the same installation scripts we'd only need one wiki for the
both, with maybe a few caveats mentioned).

File a bug and we'll try to add those to the ISO as optional packages (unless
there's a reason not to. ;) We'll have to talk to the ISO Team about that.)
