I just want to let you know that I am experiencing the same problem with 2.4.0test9-pre1. This is with an old ISA 486 box with 32M. Behavior is a little bit different: I don't see the first line of the kernel messages and I get a hard reset.
2.4.0test8 booted fine and I have stripped the test9-pre1 patch down to 80k because the rest (acpi, drivers/net, drivers/usb, for example) was not configured in. The problem stays...
The patch still contains (from memory): - mktime movement - char/mem.c - char/nvram.c - scsi/sd.c - everything from fs/ (except nfs, not enabled) - everything from kernel/ - Rik's VM patches - net/core/sock.c
The biggest part that is still in the patch are Rik's VM enhancements although I do not think that they are the cause of the problem in this early stage. Seems to be a strange side effect...
I cannot give you much more information since I am in the office now but feel free to ask.
