booting a custom darwin kernel on a powerbook

hello list,

i have managed to build a custom mach_kernel from
the 10.3/7.0 sources at apple.com. i even managed
to tell openfirmware to boot it, but during the boot
process it complains about not being able to load
extensions:

Jan 1 01:00:09 localhost kernel: kld(): Undefined symbols:

apart from that, the system starts up just fine. however, i cannot use the powerbooks trackpad or keyboard to login [i think the missing ApplePMU extension is responsible for that], and the machine does not reply to pings. usb mice work fine, though.

so, my question is:
how do i build a kernel with support for the
powerbooks hardware? or rather, where do i get the
sources for the ApplePMU extension? and how do
i install the extensions so that they can coexist
with the already installed extensions of the same
name?

i am using a 667 MHz powerbook G4.


thnx/ cheers, /folkert
