I managed to boot it with the 1.4.1 install kernel (on a good
day with the right phase of the moon), the 1.4P install kernel
and the installed 1.4P kernel. (I am assuming you mean "install
kernel" = the one of the boot floppy, and I am asserting that
the "installed 1.4P kernel" is the one from the 19991223 snap
kern.tgz file).

When booted, it seems fine. It's not until I do heavy disk usage
(like the gunzip I described) that these errors appear.

I'll gladly try other kernels, since I can't use the machine as
is.
