   Re. the boot chime: some live image for ppc64 might help: on
Debian-like distros something like

nvsetvol 0

then should do it.  I've found some ppc 32-bit lubuntu live image to
get that done, some time ago, IIRC.  Alternatively:

https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/ports/2019-05-09/

Starting an install with an iso from there (they have 64-bits, it
seems) and then switching to a console might be worth a try.

Good luck!
