It is not clear that this is a kernel issue. It is likely this is a incompatibility between the Mac EFI and i386 uEFI implementations. This is suggested by the fact the i386 images boot correctly (which do not have EFI support) but the amd64 images do not (which do have EFI support). To confirm that this is the cause of the issue I have remastered the amd64 image without the EFI support. If those who have these machines could test the image below and let us know it works for you:

Please report any testing results here. Thanks!
