        It seems in the latest -CURRENT, the following in the kernel
config file based on the GENERIC kernel:

options                MAXMEM=786432

would hang the kernel right after:

        At this point, it would just sit there and hitting the power
button would turn off the machine.  Tested this on two notebooks and a
desktop, same results.  Taking out that line in the kernel config would
make a bootable kernel.
