Boot failed with new 2.3.99 kernel !

[Valéry Raulet]

 Hi,

I'm currently using the 2.2.15pre19 kernel but I wanted to test the
lastest 2.3 kernel (2.3.99pre6-5) because I need specific features in
it.  I've got a lot of trouble in booting, could someone explain ?

The system is a 604e Motorola motherboard with 512Mo RAM with PreP arch.
The system is working fine with 2.2 kernels but not with 2.3.99 kernels.
