Yes, it is i586--the AA1 won't handle x86_64.  I've just installed your
kernel and rebooted 5 times without error. so, I think that indicates
that you're probably right that it's something in debugging.  

Thanks very very much. As mentioned in the first post, I won't have this
machine long enough to test it once you've fixed it, but it looks as if
you're on the right track. 

Many thanks.
