okay thanks for quick reaction.
thanks also for ruling out 686 false cpu detection due to 486 testing.
currenly the best guess is that udev is loading one driver that
makes your box freeze.
so please change in /etc/udev/udev.conf the log priority
udev_log="info" and then update initramfs
update-initramfs -u -k <kernelversion>
where kernelversion is the desired uname -r output in that case
2.6.25-2-686
make sure to rechange the udev_log afterwards to err, as this
slows down boot..
what are the last shown messages before freeze?
