[Peeweelinux] Re: 2.4 troubles

Try compiling your kernel with console redirection support, attach it to 
something with Minicom running and let that term capture the output. 
Even though you don't have a proper getty to actually support logins 
over console, the capture up until that point should show you the 
problem.... (I've debugged a few nefarious problems this way...)
