Hi,

[1.] One line summary of the problem:
I can not start 2.4.6-pre5 on my machine.

[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
I've tried to upgrade from 2.4.5-pre1 to 2.4.6-pre5 but it failed the new
kernel failed to boot. It OOPS-es while it's starting. I managed to write
down some of the OOPS parameters.

[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel):
kernel boot.

[4.] Kernel version (from /proc/version):
2.4.6-pre5

[5.] Output of Oops.. message (if applicable) with symbolic information
     resolved (see Documentation/oops-tracing.txt)

All information that I have not saved is replaced with zeroes. So I got
only the EIP, call trace and the Code:
