New kernel not running.

Hi,
   I am newbie to the XNU world. I have a iBook G4. uname -a gives me

7.4.0 Darwin Kernel Version 7.4.0: Wed May 12 16:58:24 PDT 2004;
root:xnu/xnu-517.7.7.obj~7/RELEASE_PPC  Power Macintosh powerpc

So I downloaded the xnu-517.7.7.tar.gz.
I went through the build instructions and tried building a kernel. I
was successful in building it. I copied it to /mach_kernel.new
I rebooted and trapped into Open Firmware and saw that hd: was aliased
to /pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0
So I set the boot-file variable to
/pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0,mach_kernel.new and tried rebooting the
machine.
When it reboots I can see the grey screen. But, instead of the Apple
logo at the centre of the screen I can see some undecipherable image.
What am I missing?

Thanks in advance,
-Romit
