Sounds like hardware problems to me. Take your case cover off
and re-seat everthing, eg, ram, cpu, cables, cards, etc. Clean out
any dust bunnies. While the covers still off, point a table fan
blowing into the case and try to boot. If successful, try again
without the fan and with the cover on. If it won't boot then,
heat's your problem. It's usually the #1 offender.
It's better to try to boot a 'memtest86' floppy tho, so you
won't risk your ext2fs if all's not well, and so you can run the
tests. http://reality.sgi.com/cbrady_denver/memtest86/
