It does have a PhoenixBIOS 4.0 Version 6 in it.  That seemed to take care of the
disk activity after resume, but it still hangs.  I cannot even drop to the 
debugger.  I get the same results with X11 running.  The screen comes back up
just fine and all, but the machine is completely frozen.  I'll set some break
points in the debugger later and see if I can come up with something that might
be useful.

(btw, I did try decreasing MAXMEM, that doesn't seem to be the problem either. 
It is set for 128M.  I also tried reducing it in addition to the above patches.)
