The subject says "quiet."

My test system's running Rawhide, and it was in the final stages of 
updating to my overnight refresh of my rawhide mirror as I read your email.

I added 'quiet rhgb' to the kernel parameters for the latest 2.4.25 
kernel (which I expect to fail), and I did get the kernel messages, and 
the expected boot failure (though the actual messages were different 
from what I expected. Probably a new mkinitrd caused that).


I then booted the last kernel that does work, a 2.4.25 kernel, with 
"quiet rhgb" and there are absolutely no messages, and the system seems 
to be locked up.

Wanna come round and sort it out?

Against what? The cause is likely a local problem.
