next up: trying to build/boot a 2.6.0-test[x] kernel

[Robert P. J. Day]

  based (loosely) on my 2.4 kernel config file, i've built both
a 2.6.0-test1 and 2.6.0-test2 kernel, and tried to boot both of
them.

  they both freeze right around the "Freeing unused kernel memory"
message, sometimes just two or three lines before that, but always
pretty much in the same place.

  i'm pretty sure this isn't the ubiquitous missing-VT-config
problem since that normally stops printing output long before
then, and i've verified that i have the vt options configured
in.

  i'm just digging into that, but if anyone has hints, that
would be nice.  (obviously, i built those kernels with gcc 3.3).

  slowly, but surely.
