After logging the start and end of each script, I see that the "stack smashing detected" error often happens while running "/etc/rcS.d/S01mountkernfs.sh" (/etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh). I'll try to isolate it to a particular command.
That brings to mind some other unresolved initscript failures, also involving 68030, which were accompanied by "page allocation failure". But it's hard to blame "stack smashing detected" on a page allocation failure since the latter always produces a very noisy splat in the kernel messages. Have you reproduced the error with Debian's kernel package? If not, please refer to private correspondence from me dated 10 December 2022 regarding setting up /etc/initramfs-tools so as to produce a suitably small initramfs. To save time, I recommend using QEMU and an up-to-date Debian/m68k SID virtual machine to produce the vmlinux and initrd files needed for use with Penguin on your slower machines.
