Thanks.  I'm pretty sure this isn't hardware related, as the same system 
runs the kernel supplied with the binary package just fine, plus kernels 
compiled by myself work OK without colinux.

I've compiled a copy of the kernel with the config file supplied in the 
colinux source distribution, and that seems to be working,  I'm going 
through a second compile of it now, with it running, and it seems to be 
pretty stable.  It's got a lot farther than the last one did, at least.

So I guess it was one of the config options that did it.  Are there any 
that are known to be dangerous with colinux?  The main changes I made 
were optimising for my processor environment (changed from CONFIG_M586 
to CONFIG_MK7, disabled CONFIG_X86_GENERIC, all consequential changes 
from this).  I also killed support for a.out binaries, moved binfmt_misc 
to a module, switched off the kernel debugging options, and added 
support for unloading modules.

There were other changes too, but mostly relating to filesystems, which 
I don't think are likely candidates.

Any suggestions on what may have caused the problem?
