I've got a SCSI-based quad P3 system which starts up just fine off the stock
2.2.19pre17 kernel from potato, but refuses to boot the 2.4.5 kernel that
I've built for it. It dies just after initializing the NET4 subsystem,

Well, I've made some progress. The major original problem was a library

I've got an NIS/NFS server set up and running kernel 2.4.4. NFSv3 support
was not included, but nfsd was and it's running knfsd.
