I have lost the thread for this topic so I will reply to my own posting..

You bring up a good point: I should have mentioned that I built the glibc flavor. I wonder if this could be a glibc issue? That would cause havoc when the kernel tries to run init, I assume - but would it cause a kernel panic?

I will build a 2.6.14.6/glibc version and see what happens.. I will take about 2 hours..

  HLFS 2.6.14.6/glibc builds, boots and accesses the network.

This build was done with the following jhalfs branch which pulls down the latest HLFS book with no changes made to the code and only recommended security switches enabled in the kernel.
