would that cause the kernel to fail to boot entirely?  the machine
never becomes pingable, sshable, nor does it dial ppp at boot like it
usually does.

yup, my .config is available on request, i did not want to spam the
list with such a large file.  besides i tried using paul's config
included in his rsync tree as well, it failed too, the exact same way...

no and yes, the machine is perfectly stock except for having more
ram.  and paul's 2.2.14 works on it (that is what it is running now)
