Just wanted to let you know that I've found out how to work around
this.
During the installation, you need to configure PCMCIA and set an
option for the controller. Set it to:
irq_list=3,4,7,11
and all will be well.
Thanks to all who responded.

booting with a different version of the
kernel skips the pcmcia stuff (because of mismatching versions) and
can start looking for the cause.
PS: I goofed the debian-laptop address on the original message.
It only went out to debian-user. Below is the original.

I have been looking at /var/log/messages to see if I can find out what
is causing the hang, but I'm afraid that is a little beyond me. If
kind folks in the know would care to help me out, I'd appreciate it.

Err, you did read Documentation/filesystems/devfs/README, didn't you?
If not, recompile your kernel without devfs and I think your problems
will disappear.

just hitting enter at the boot prompt, do
linux vga=0x318
for a full-screen, full-colour (1024x768x32) installation. There are
a couple of more values you could use but I don't remember them off
the top of my head.
