I found out how this happens. I just tested the 4.9.1 ROM (bundled with a G4),
and this error occured. I tracked it down to a stupid printf error in MOL
(not fixed in 0.9.51). After fixing this bug, I got it to almost
boot. When I get some time to spare, I'll try to fix it completely.
In the meantime, it is possible to use the 3.8 ROM (extractible
from the Ethernet Update using TomeViewer - there are links on
the download page).
Cheers,
/Samuel
