3.1-rc6 boot problem reason searching

With M586 it also boots.
Enclosed is the dmesg , if of any importance (ignore
that the kernel is named -i486, this is only because I
don't want to rename everything, hoping that soon M486
returns to work).
Below is also the diff which config's are changed
implicitely on changing from M486 to M586 .
Thus, the problem is between M486 and M586 , compiled
with 486 it don't boot, but compiled for 586 it boots.
Alias, M686 runs the whole day without any other problems.
You can suggest me now a next config to try out for better
find the reason for the problem.

Try M586 next ("586/K5/5x86/6x86/6x86MX"). If that
works, that narrows
it down to M486->M586.
And if that *doesn't* work, try M586TSC
("Pentium-Classic") and then
M586MMX ("Pentium-MMX") to see exactly where it breaks..
