quik happily boots a 2.6.18 on a Beige G3 here; you should be able to
get a kernel bigger than 4MB to boot :

sjv@tloen:~$ uname -a
Linux tloen 2.6.18-sjv1 #1 Sun Sep 24 00:34:53 CEST 2006 ppc GNU/Linux

sjv@tloen:~$ ls -l /boot/vmlinux-2.6.18-sjv1 
-rwxr-x---  1 root root 5673578 2006-09-24 00:39 /boot/vmlinux-2.6.18-sjv1
