I think I've discovered what's causing the hang, but haven't had time to
dig into it.  It seems that the video card (huh?!) is the problem.  

 lspci -v shows this with the 2.6.28 kernel booted up....

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV4 [RIVA TNT]
(rev 04) (
        Subsystem: VISIONTEK Device 0020
        Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 9
        Memory at f5000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
        Memory at fc000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=16M]
        Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 1
        Capabilities: [44] AGP version 1.0
        Kernel driver in use: rivafb
----------------------------------------------------------------
On a whim I dropped in a low end VESA PCI card and 2.6.26 boots right
up.  Put the Nvidia Riva back in, and the hang returns. And people
wonder why I have ulcers.  :)
