Negative, sadly. When I boot from the 2.6.8 686 SMP kernel, it freezes,
hanging at a spot near:
pnp: Device 00:12 activated.
pnp: Device 00:13 activated.
and then ttyS1 or ttys) being activated. Trying to get correct chunk of
/var/log/messages to post.
Choosing the 2.8.6 386 regular kernel, system boots normally. Oddly,
checking /var/log/messages makes it look like the system kept on
trucking, even though it didn't display any of the messages it logged.
May get frustrated and follow found instructions.
for 2.4 on Debian, but very thorough:

2.6:

Either way, deadline approaches.
