Yeah. Try an a.out base system. I told you on IRC I doubted ELF would
work, and that's exactly the crash I expected. However, if you would like
to try fixing it, it would be great.
Side note, did you use real mach_init or a symlink to /sbin/init ? If it's
`real', it can cause some problems in and of itself. Its use is
depreciated, for the near future.
