- Document (if any)/Link which will give view on register and instuction set change/diffrenence between old power pc family.

The PPC family is documented in lots of different books.If you've ever used a chip with an ARM core in it you'll have the same problem. The book for the chip refers to the ARM documentaiton, and there's no end of that.

Read the following for previous examples of trying to find the book that tells you what you want to know:

Another problem with the PPC is that most of the instructions you'll find in assembly source "don't exist" and aren't listed in the section of the manuals (PEM) that list the instructions. They're listed in "Appendix F - Simplified Mnemonics" of the PEM and there's 24 PAGES of them.
