This regression, also reported by Patrick (hang at "K"), looks like an
unhandled interrupt. If so, you can probably get slightly different
results (e.g. hang a bit later) by simply repeating the process.
I would also check what happens if you first boot MacOS with extensions
off (so that the MacOS NIC driver doesn't load).
Also, I'm curious to know whether the Penguin settings for the serial
ports affect the failure mode (you don't want Penguin to initialise them).
You might also try disconnecting any serial devices.
