Sorry to say this, but AFAIK 43P-140 is not yet ready to run linux.
To say it better, linux is still unable to boot on that box.
You should be successfull on older 43P (7248-100/120/133) or on newer 43P-150.
Please have a look at this list: linuxppc-workstation@lists.linuxppc.org
for more up-to-date news.
