Are you sure you have a swap partition and that swap is turned on?


: It is highly recommended that you boot the 1.2.13 kernel b4 you attempt to recompile your kernel.
 
 Probably a good idea... but

: ALL 1.3.xx kernels are Beta and do cause protection-faults all over the place with the newer bios.  
: Unless you really know what you are doing ( i.e. you are a kernel programming wizard ) avoid this kind of 
: stuff.  

I've never had any problems with the 1.3.x kernels.

: After you have installed the 1.2.13 kernel, you need to do the following:

: 	make clean
: 	make config

: **NOTE: In make config here you want -m486 optimizations also you have a math-co processor ( as it is 
: built-in the 486 chip )

: 	make dep
: 	make zlilo
