Compaq Presario 1200 and Kernel 2.4

[Anders Nielsen <debian@nanders.com>]

Hi,

I have been running Debian on my Compaq Presario 1200 since i bought it in 
february this year. It was a bit fidely to get the Conexant LANFinity nic 
working, but in the end i suceeded.

I have one unresolved problem though. I am running kernel 2.2.23 at the moment, 
but i havn't been able to get kernel 2.4 to work. The machine boots at runs 
perfectly, but when i reboot it hangs realy badly. It takes a couple of hard 
reboots (holding the power button down for 5 sec.) before it can boot again.

This is the only reason why i am not running kernel 2.4.

Anyone had this problem? Or a solution?
