And Amiboot does show the backward seek error on images I created myself with a `new' binutils.
Unfortunately yes I'm sure. First I'd only tried 2.6.7 and received the backward seek error. So I filtered both 2.6.7 and 2.6.8 through Finn perl-script and used those. Afterward I thought what if 2.6.8 wasn't broken to begin with. So I loaded the original 2.6.8 on my Mac partition, tried it and got the error. This is with the 2.6.8 kernel from Christian's site, extracted out of the kernel-image-2.6.8-mac_2.6.8-1_m68k.deb file.
