A right angle adaptor called a Zipmate for a Rotozip will get it done. The
right angle adaptor let's you cut flush to the face of the toe kick on the
cabinet. I did this the other day at a buddys house. We cut out 3 or 4 vinyl
floors plus the underlayment to get down to the sub floor before laying a
wood floor.
I'd recomment removing as much of the old vinyl and lauan as possible using
other methods. The Rotozip solution doesn't have a depth stop, so you need
to see how deep you are going. That's easier to do with only a few inches of
the old flooring still in place.
