There may be a known issue with 32 bit PPC and CONFIG_HIGHMEM. If it is the
problem I think it is, there is a patch below but we haven't been able to
fins a machine to confirm it fixes it.
Can you please confirm that CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set on your machine? If it is,
can you unset it and see does it boot? If it boots, this patch should allow
the kernel to boot with CONFIG_HIGHMEM.
Thanks
