I've seen similar posts about this issue back in January, so you might look
there. I've got the same board and am having luck but only with one of the
two BIOS's shipped with the board for evaluation. I have some rev 2 and
some rev 3 boards, and the rev 2 ship with BIOS's from two different vendors
(SystemSoft and Phoenix?). If I boot off the SystemSoft one, it reboots in
approximately the same place, but if I use the other BIOS, it works fine.
If you're on a rev 3 board, you'll have to re-program the ROM with the other
BIOS if you want to give it a try. Good luck.

Try to compile and boot 2.0.36 with the .config file you have used for
2.0.35. Copy .config to your /usr/src/linux with 2.0.36 and run "make
oldconfig". If it works go through patch-2.0.36 and try to apply the changes
which are close to the point of failure.
Or if you have some patch for 2.0.35 apply it to 2.0.36, find .rej files and
modify the sources manually.
