It appears to be utterly buggered.
Upon first attempt: it got about as far as starting syslogd, before printing
"eth0: Re-entering the interrupt handler" seven times and locking hard.
The offending device was a tulip card, so I updated to Donald Becker's latest
(v0.89B) and recompiled.
Upon second attempt, it got a little further through the init scripts, before
it died with a bloody great string of oopsen, one of which went something like:
page fault from irq handler: 0000
Aiee, killing interrupt handler.

Admittedly, this kernel's got the PC Speaker driver in it, and is compiled
with egcs -mcpu=pentium -march=pentium, but that's no excuse.
