Re: G4 boot crash problems with 2.4 "stable"

Is there a 2.4 kernel source tarball around that is known to boot on
Sawtooth (using BootX)?  Is there a way to yank the OpenPIC support?

BootX isn't supported on any newworld mac. You should boot from OF,
using yaboot.

BootX works fine for me with every 2.2 kernel I've tried.  It only fails
for 2.4 TOT builds.  I very much doubt the boot mechanism is at fault.
