Just to follow up on this.
The problem does not appear to be the kernel. Installing on one disk
succeeds in producing a bootable system every time. Installing on all
four disks (two 73 GB disks and two 146 GB disks) never succeeds.
Although there are a storm of ipr driver messages as before, that is
likely not the problem.
I'm going to continue on #fedora-ppc and the corresponding mailing list.
