After a "cd /usr/src ; make install" it no longer errors on reboot.

I'll try to retest this on a spare m.board (as my laptop is now in
use, & not available for test. However, 1st mboard I tried on doesnt
like 5 series boot, so I''l switch to another board eith a BIOS
that may like 5 series boot (emul/non emul).
If I can reproduce it, I'll report.

Yes. Couldnt login on laptop keyboard. Couldnt rlogin telnet ssh remote.
Couldnt even ping I recall.

both kernels ?
At that time I was running the kernel the cdrom delivered to my hard disc.
I'm now running my own kernel.

OK, I've modified my custom kernel adding
	makeoptions     DEBUG=-g
	options         DDB
	options INVARIANTS 
	options WITNESS  
to be ready, but I can't reproduce the problem here either:
  I've just done another ftp put of 1G (in same
  direction, 4.9 host Pentium II/Pentium II Xeon/Celeron (400.91-MHz
  686-class CPU) to 5.2.1-RC2 laptop Pentium/P55C (166.66-MHz 586-class
  CPU) & it won't crash again, (with my kernel).  (albeit the 1G was
  different data, before it was my backup tar.gz before changing
  disks, now its the 2 5.2.1-RC2.isos.
  I tried an amd+nfs cp to try to trigger it, no hang occured..
  I reverted to original 5.2.1-RC2 generic kernel & still can't get
  the silent hang.

Only thing left, grasping at straws, is my old laptop had a lof of
read errors accesing the CD-RW, maybe somehow I got some bad binaries
from that, that my make install has subsequently cured.
I dont think its a heat problem. Office is a bit warmer today, & 
Ive not seen heat problems before on that box.

Sorry I too can't seem to be able to replicate these errors.
I tried though, & now have a kernel ready if they recur.
Thanks.
