Hmm... all the stock <foo>-686 Debian kernels I've used in the last year or

If you need more than 3GB, you need to the <foo>-686-bigmem kernels.

What have you tried to do to make them work, as of now?
Have you checked on www.tuxmobil.org for other people's reports on
installing GNU/Linux on a 3684WXCi?
