    Oops! I would have expected the wrong kernel image to cause a kernel panic
    rather than to load then fail later on -- but obviously I don't know what
    I'm doing in the kernel department. I hope this is the only thing wrong.

    Once I manage to boot from the CD with the correct kernel, is this the
    correct procedure for fixing my problem?

    1. change the /vmlinuz and /initrd symlinks to point to the i386
       kernel images
    2. check lilo.conf and run /sbin/lilo
    3. pray|chant|sacrifice and reboot
    4. stop messing with these things on my important workstation (that's
       what the spare computer is for)

    Thanks,
    Adam
