One thing I forgot to mention...you did create swap space and run mkswap
on the space? Plus, try to debug with apm disabled, it is a
trouble-maker (just one more thing that has had lots of bug fixes
recently). And lastly, if you *still* can't get things going, and you
have a second computer, you can run the kernel debugger patches (best
via an Alan Cox ac-series patched kernel) and get a stack frame from a
second machine over the serial port, even if it has locked up. This
would be a last resort sort of thing, but the Alan Cox series of kernels
are themselves recommended even without kernel debugging:
