Specifically, I now tried applying the first 66 patches (from
1.1784.29.71 to 1.1784.39.1, in that order). I chose this cut point as
according to the timestamps in the patches it seemed to be the last
patch applied on some day, so I guessed it should have been some stable
point - I did not want to pick randomnly a point in the middle of the
work. And it didn't help. Besides the problem above (mainly about the
one before the last - 1.1784.38.27, most of it was rejected, and seemed
rather important to me), the kernel compiled ok, booted ok, but had no
network :-(

Are you sure the order isn't according to the numbers or somehow related
to them?

Tomorrow I might go on with this, but I am not sure - it's already
taking me much more time than intended.

I will also send logs of 2.6.8-rc1 and rc2. These versions did not have
the option to add a timestamp to printk, so you'll only see the time
seen by syslog, which isn't very accurate.
