Well, I see that you were bitten by the sonic ethernet bug in the 2.2 
kernel,

    Warning: kfree_skb passed an skb still on a list (from 000e4416).

Maybe that was the root cause...

Sonic is fixed in 2.6, but there's no mouse or keyboard on that model 
because the IOP ADB driver isn't working (and isn't even present in 
Christian's mac kernels because it was crashy). I plan to work on IOP ADB 
when I get the hardware.

If you can make do without a keyboard, you may want to try Christian's 
kernel.
