Doh, it sounded just like too well matching. So, we have to go through more pain, sorry. When you boot the 2.6.28 kernel, break for grub and on the selection screen edit the arguments. Remove "quiet" and "splash" and add "vga=ask pause_on_panic=60". When you boot you'll get a screen that lets you select a VGA mode. Get the one with the most lines and go on. Hopefully by that, you can catch the place and backtrace of te first oops that happens with a bit more of the messages around it.
