Did you strip the kernel both times? I have the same early-reboot
problem if I strip my kernels (without the -g option to config). I
first ran into the problem when I was testing out the pcvt 3.20
drivers. I made a note of it to Joerg Wunsch and he wasn't sure what
to make it of it either, since a kernel shouldn't crash when you strip
it.
