Version 1.2.0 on Sequoia? Ummm. Please try 1.3.0 instead.

Right, but this is still somewhat experimental.

The recommended way do far is to boot an ARCH=powerpc kernel  on  the
Sequoia  by  using  the  boot  wrapper  (i. e. use cuImage instead of
uImage).

It's certainly  convenient  the  way  the  crime  (or  condition)  of
stupidity   carries   with   it  its  own  punishment,  automatically
admisistered without remorse, pity, or prejudice. :-)
