Thanks to David Wolfskill for talking me through setting up a serial 
console, I'm able to extract some debugging information from my system 
now.  Some initial bits (retyped by me, hopefully not too many mistakes) 
follow:

kernel trap 12 with interrupts disabled

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address   = 0x48
fault code              = supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer     = 0x8:0xffffffff802b14fa
stack pointer           = 0x10:0xffffffffa263b9d0
frame pointer           = 0x10:0xffffffffa263ba10
code segment            = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
                         = DPL 0, pres 1, long 1, def32 0, gran 1
processor eflags        = resume, IOPL = 0
current process         = 38 (syncer)

Is there anything else that might be useful in tracking down this problem? 
If it's anything that's very involved I may need to be pointed at an 
instruction manual!

Cheers,

Chris.
