I successfully booted the powerpc-pmac kernel with quik on my
oldworld, so apparently the size is not a problem for quik.

However, it didn't load the modules. I had copied the modules into 

/lib/modules/2.4.22-powerpc-pmac/

As they had been unpacked on my newworld from the deb. But during
boot, the kernel was looking in 

/lib/modules/2.4.22-powerpc/

and the uname of the kernel is also 2.4.22-powerpc, so they didn't
get loaded. In /boot, the file name is vmlinux-2.4.22-powerpc-pmac .
