I don't think I tried 9 series, my shell mini still runs 8 and my test
mini runs 10, but I don't think 9 had any major problems.

As a random thought - try using ofwboot.elf instead of ofwboot.xcf -
some memory mapping numerology might be at play here (different kernel
size, compressed, etc - PRs 44895, 49907).
