Can you test with latest stable version, ie 5.2.8 ?
Built from my G5 with make-kpkg and still doesn't boot :
FWIW, 5.2.0 is working fine on my G5 (PowerMac7,3).

Mine is a PowerMac11,2 "Quadcore" and / is on a RAID0

As 4.19.5 boot I don't think is a hardware problem.

Since no wild guess seems to be possible. Can you do a git bisect on
your side. Using a git clone of the linux kernel, I usually do from my
amd64 box:

When doing git bisect I compile from my amd64 machine using:

$ make O=g4 ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- my_defconfig
$ make -j8 O=g4 ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- bindeb-pkg
$ scp *image*.deb macminig4:

The bindeb-pkg target is handy to generate a deb package. You may need
to adapt this for your g5.
