I haven't tried booting r2052 from CD because in the end, I need an
environment running from the hard drive. If you think I should try
that for debugging purposes, let me know.
Here's my /grub/menu.lst (I've added a ">" to the beginning of each
line so you can tell if it's wrapped):

After reading another post, I tried appending "noapic nolapic
pci=noacpi nomsi clock=pit" which didn't help. The 6.2-5 CD boots
with "linux vga=789" or just "linux" however with vga=789 omitted,
it doesn't use the whole screen, and the console font looks
strange.
Here is the text on the screen when it stops (">" added to each
line):

On a related note, here is what grub displayed before the scrolling
text above erases it (again, ">" added):

In case the problem is due to corrupted files, I've taken the
md5sums of the extracted files I'm using if you'd like to check
them.
MD5SUMS:
d2c451e979f90e911a395ce3c71765b5 linux
0d52eb165ac70ea135c0184567efc172 initramfs_data.cpio.gz
Thanks for the help.
