Seriously grasping at straws here. Do you have SMP enabled? If so, do you really have a multiprocessor or multicore machine? I ask beause I did find where someone else had SMP enabled and it shouldn't have been. I noticed it shows it is enabled in the config you posted earlier. Also, make sure you have the correct CPU selected too. I think you do tho from what I saw in the config. Also make sure you have the correct partitions in fstab too. I know I'm bad to mix those up sometimes or just leave out a "/" mark. Another thought, are you sure that the drive partitions are sda and not hda? I still use the old drivers and mine are hda but some are using the new drivers which are sda. Just wanting to make certain. Grasping at one more straw. ;-) I'll do some more thinking and put a little more wear and tear on google. Dale :-) :-)
