Under Multimedia devices / Video for Linux I included: * CPiA Video for Linux * CPiA USB lowlevel support When booting, I got this: V4L-Driver for Vision CPiA based cameras v0.7.4 usb.c: registered new driver cpia Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 printing eip: c0119e3c * pde=00000000 Oops: 0002 EIP: 0010: [] Not tainted EFLAGS 00010002 After this there was additional failure information (eax, ebx, ecx, edx, esi, edi, ebp, esp), ds: 0018 es: 0018 ss: 0018, Process swapper (pid: 1, stackpage=C12d7000), Stack, Call trace, Code, and finally, Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! No error log appears to have been written; I copied this down. I then rebuilt the kernel without the CPiA driver and the USB low-level support and the system works fine. I had the same experience in the fall, building with 2.4.16 for an i586. I tried to get something useful from Oops but failed.
