#8 OS X 10.0 panics
When attempting to boot the OS X 10.0 install disk (from a Debian GNU/Linux host), the Darwin kernel panics. As was mentioned on the mailing list, this is probably a simple problem of a syscall that 10.0 doesn't know about and recompiling MOL on a 10.0 machine would quickly track it down.
The key error messages printed on the console appear to be:
panic(cpu 0): Unable to find driver for this platform: "AAPL,MOL".
version string : Darwin Kernel Version 1.3:
Thu Mar 1 06:56:40 PST 2001; root:xnu/xnu-123.5.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC
For complete error messages, see the screenshots I have attached to this bug.

Okay, it looks like it ran out of memory. How much memory do you have? How much did you assign to MOL? Can you provide the MOL log that goes along with this boot attempt?

This iMac has 384MB of RAM. I did not change the amount of memory
allocated to MOL, so it used whatever is the default (which I had
thought was all of the memory). I have deployed the machine so I no
longer have access to the boot logs.

Well, the default is 96MB, which may not actually be enough to boot with the new bootloader now that I think about it. I've increased the default to 128MB now, hopefully I'll get a chance to test if that solves the issue soon.
