Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, still no joy. The grub args were

Try:
kernel /vmlinux-2.4.22-1.2174.nptlsmp ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb noapic

APIC and ACPI are not the same thing. You want to disable the APIC,
not ACPI (which controls power management), although you may still need
to disable ACPI (some BIOSes are weird), in which case the end of your
line is:
noapic acpi=off
and it still hung in the same place. The last line looked like...
CPU0<T0:....,T1:...,D:14,S:.....,C:....>
and then nothing.

Thanks Rotariu,
I tried disabling the video shadow, but still no go. :v(
Mostly it hangs right after having said something about configuring
the APIC timer.
Try adding acpi=off to your kernel command line.
