Well, I still do not know the answer; when I started to investigate it decided to work and I am running it right now. Bootloader not in a mood? Quite possible. Boot commands used with 2.4.18-rc1 and 2.4.18-rc4 differ by one character (more precisely, a digit :-). Sorry for a premature alarm. BTW - I noticed that although I wrote that Monday I failed to mention this in the message quoted. The machine is Alpha (Nautilus).
