Hi again... sorry about my insistence, but I will not give up untill
  had tamed this piece of crap from the BigBlue!

I used the .config attached and after the compilation the command:

                 mvopy /usr/src/linux/arch/ppc/chrpboot/zImage a:

After OF had loaded the image from the floppy the error message is:

CHRPBOOT STARTING: LOADED AT 0X4000000 AVAIL_RAM=CB720
GUNZIPPING (0X1000 <-0X4160F8:0X4D6014) DEFAULT CATCH!, CODE=FFF002000
AT
   %5RR0:004 03A70 %SRR1: 00083000

And after this just any command result in

UNABLE TO USE MEMORY AT LOAD-BASE

  and just reset-all works.

Why your kernel can boot here and mine do not?!!!!!

Maybe you could do a diff from my .config and yours just to see if there
is
  any important diferece... I did this here and cant explain why my
zImage
  fails and yours work :-((
