Eric,
what bootloader are you using ? Please post what is in your lilo.conf or 
grub/menu.lst
I'm using grup and the contents of my menu.lst is at
http://www.persson.tm/debian_install/menu.lst

Aslo,
what version of sarge are you using ?
cat /etc/debian_version gives me 3.1
What laptop are you using ?
Its kind of a noname laptop called zepto, quite standard hardware, most 
of it I guess.

Another thing you could try is
a) clean install of sarge with a current sarge netinst snapshot 
installing a quite minila system
I used a iso file called sarge-i386-netinst.iso is that the latest?

b) apt-get install of a Debian 2.6.9 kernel from unstable
I did an apt-get install kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686
and got it working right from the install, no problems.
However, the reason i needed to recompile the kernel was that I wanted 
to get the nvidia drivers for x working correctly, and that doesnt seem 
to do with the kernel-headers package for 2.4.27 that I ran before. But 
this seems to got changed with 2.6.8 so now that works.

So, currently I dont really need to recompile, more than for the fun of 
it, and any possible speed improvements it might give me. :)

If you get any ideas on how to get my personal configured and tailored 
kernel to boot correctly, I would appreciate it. :)

Best regards,
        Eric
