Kernel Panic with 2.4.6/2.4.9/2.4.9-ac7

Kernel Panic with 2.4.6/2.4.9/2.4.9-ac7

Hi,
Today I installed SuSE 7.2 (with kernel 2.4.4-4GB included with SuSE).
After the installation I decided to compile my own kernel like I always
do.

First I tried 2.4.9, afterwards 2.4.9-ac7 and at last 2.4.6, all with
the same result: Either the boot process simply stops somewhere in the
middle or there is a kernel panic. So I took 2.4.9-ac7 and removed
everything "Experimental" from it, including IDE-DMA, AGP etc. This time
I could boot to the prompt but when X came up, it crashed and triggered
a kernel Ooops. This time I could save the dmesg. BTW, 2.2.19 also works
properly.

My System is a AMD Thunderbird with a Via82C686 Chipset, 256MB Ram
(tested with memtestx86, no errors), a DPT PM1554U2 controller (but same
behavior without compiling this into the kernel) and Reiserfs on my root
partition (hda2), so no exotic hardware.

The kernel Oops looks like this:

----------------------- end ---------------------------

I simply attach the whole "dmesg" to this mail - perhaps this makes
things clearer...

Does anyone have a clue what to do? Should I try 2.4.4?
Please contact me if you need any further information.

		Best Regards,
		Hermann
