I never tried a 2.4.x kernel and I do not know if there is a default
configuration for the 2.4.x debian kernel packages. In case there is
none, could it be that you are expected to have ram disk support when
configuring the 2.4.x debian kernel?
And since you were asking, why won't you add more details about what
you have done and where does the booting process stop?
