Thanks for working on this!

I'll check on both my IIfx and LC III.  I'm seeing two kernels, though:

boot/vmlinux-4.1.35-mac_scsi-egret+ -- 4907715 bytes
vmlinux-4.1.35-mac_scsi-egret+      -- 3818980 bytes

Ok.. Neither kernel booted on my 32 MB Mac IIfx; both hung right
after the Penguin boot process. My IIfx has the following hardware:
 a) Farallon EtherMac II-C ethernet card
 b) Radius PrecisionColor 24X Series video card

The Penguin booter complained that it wasn't able to turn off slot
interrupts on either card (though that's not normally a problem).

My IIfx worked previously with standard Debian 3.1; now it hangs
in the boot scripts of Debian 3.1 while configuring the ethernet
card (I had to switch from an Asante ethernet card to a Farallon
card to get A/UX 3.1.1 working).

I haven't tried booting on the LC III yet..
