Well - by chance we found another old Laptop, an IBM Thinkpad 350 (the old was
model 340) and found a RAM extension, so we have no 36MB RAM.

But - guess what: The error still persists!

I am quite clueless - maybe it has something to do with the IDE subsystem? We
put a 4GB 2.5'' HD in this old Laptop, but the harddisk is correctly
recognized by Linux (also Partition check), grub is also working and it Linux
also mounts the partition.

Is there any way to get more information out of the kernel?

Best Regards,
Hermann
