That's not fixable at the X level (well, technically it is but I can't
figure out how and the X people refuse to consider that method). You will
need to boot via OF and yaboot (or equivalent oldworld) directly, not via
BootX to avoid the PCI resource conflict. Alternative: fix the resource
conflict at the kernel level, new patch by me in the works.
