Pimiga 4 on Raspberry Pi 5

I got myself a Raspberry Pi 5 with the intent of using it for Amiga emulation. There are several images floating around on the internet that bundle Amiga software.

The most comprehensive page I found is https://amigang.com/software-pii/ on AmigaNG.

I tried the Pimiga 4 image (PIMIGA_ARM.7z, md5sum 34ff61d2fd58e70b8109312b1a9202a9) but it turned out that the bundled kernel is too old for this board. Running this image results in the following kernel panics:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Asynchronous SError Interrupt
CPU: 3 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.1.0-rpi8-rpi-2712 #1 Debian 1:6.1.73-1+rpt1
Hardware name: Raspberry Pi 5 Model B Rev 1.1 (DT)

I copied the files from a bookworm Raspberry Pi OS to the boot partition of the Pimiga image, only preserving the cmdline.txt for booting the correct partition.
