custom kernel chokes after compile/reboot -- poweredge fun



Hi list, Please reply to email directly.  Thanks.

problem:  server reboots after kernel is uncompressed.

no error as the kernel never loaded and puked before run-time.

hardware: dell poweredge 2450.

bf24.bin loads fine for the 2.4.18.

all hardware in dmesg compiled into custom kernel 2.6.3.

i've done this many times but this problem i've yet to have and dont know
what to do so i'm asking you guys/girls for help.
hardware sum: dell 2450 smp 2 p3 600s, serverworks osb4, percraid adaptec
aic7899 u160, eepro100.
dont care about ieee1394, usb, or modules.

could this be vid resolution or memory settings?

"vga16fb: initializing
vga16fb: mapped to 0xc00a0000
Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 80x30
fb0: VGA16 VGA frame buffer device"

"Memory: 512740k/524280k available (1783k kernel code, 11156k reserved,
549k data, 280k init, 0k highmem)"
last thing.  i cant find this in the config file.

"BIOS-provided physical RAM map:"

any help?
