I've run with success kernels 2.4.5 up to 2.4.17 (the one i'm using right now).
I've tryed several times to install kernel 2.4.18 without success.
It always abort during the boot process, dump registers and halt.
here is a normal 2.4.17 boot sequence from dmesg

<0>Kernel panic: ATTEMPTED to kill INIT !
I tryed removing all the kernel patches I used ( LVM, JFS, and UDF-write )
and it still panic at the same place while booting.
My only guess is it has something to do with my promise ATA/100 controller (from Maxtor but made by Promise)
Here are some info on my system ( on a working 2.4.17 +LVM +JFS +UDF-write )

In ideal world you'd lookup this EIP value (And also all values from back trace
in your System.map file (either by ksymoops program or by hand).
Also double check you have reiserfs compiled into your kernel.

I have reiserfs, but no hpfs partitions ( but yes, it is compiled in the kernel )
here the trace you rightly suggested me to produce:
EIP:
c012dcdc 00000000c012dc8c t grow_buffers
Call Trace:
c012c17b 00000000c012c154 T getblk
c012c358 00000000c012c340 T bread
c0182d0c 00000000c0182cb8 T hpfs_unlock_3inodes

c012e739 00000000c012e700 t insert_super
c012ea8b 00000000c012ea34 t read_super
c010e770 00000000c010e4bc T schedule
c011b727 00000000c011b69c T flush_scheduled_tasks

c0105254 00000000c0105248 t init
c0105688 00000000c0105660 T kernel_thread
my next step will be to recompile kernel without "hpfs" to see if it help.

Yes, it should
Or alternatively you can move reiserfs up in the list of objects to be linked
in /usr/src/linux/fs/Makefile

Running 2.4.18 now.
Removing "hpfs" from the kernel config solved my problem.
So, something has probably changed between kernel 2.4.17 and 2.4.18
regarding detection of "hpfs" partitions ?
many thanks,
