Support for booting Linux was added in the 0.9.64 release. The support
is slightly broken in 0.9.65 (the linux block driver has not yet been
updated to the improved mol interface).

I would suggest you upgrade to 0.9.65.

As for the kernel panic... has this machine an OpenFirmware?
MOL does not really need the OF device tree but it is copied to
userland anyway (possibly a NULL-check is missing somewhere).
I'd be very interested to know if the kernel panic is still
present with the 0.9.65 version (0.9.61 is _quite_ old).

Cheers,
