When I boot l4ka-i586-dbg-vga (same problem happens with l4ka-i686-rel-vga) I get a kernel panic. The message is: startup.c:592: assertion failed (mbi->flags & MULTIBOOT_MODS)
When I hit "k" to enter the kernel debugger, my machine simply restarts and POSTs again, followed by my GRUB boot menu.
Hi Karl, this sounds like you have problems with your version of GRUB. The error message you get is the resource manager complaining that you did not load any modules. Therefore, "k" reboots (bug/feature in RMGR) because no kernel is started yet.
Try to run the ready-to-go grub image from http://i30www.ira.uka.de/~ud3/mkgrubdisk/.
