Unfortunately my box hangs when booting with 2.4.18pre1 (including your patch).
After remounting the root rw and loading of the rtc-module it's only silence.

After disabling the rtc-module the box continued to boot until the floppy-
module was inserted.

My problem is that can't copy any screen-output at that moment anymore.
So if you need some SysRq-Output please tell me which one and I'll
copy it by hand.

Regards

Raoul
