Problems when upgrading the kernel

Hi!
I've got a new Intel Pentium 4 dual core server with sarge (3.1r1)
installed from the binary-1 CD. (It seems like the e1000 network module
in Debian is too old to support the network cards and I couldn't use the
netinst CD. There are two Intel 82573 gigabit controllers on the
motherboard.)
Since the CPU is dual core I need to upgrade to an SMP kernel to use
them both, right? So I installed the kernel from
kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686-smp_2.6.8-16sarge1_i386.deb but when i reboot
the server hangs at "Uncompressing Linux...".
I then tried to install both
kernel-image-2.6.8-3-686-smp_2.6.8-16sarge2_i386.deb and
kernel-image-2.6.8-3-686_2.6.8-16sarge2_i386.deb with the same result.
Could I have done anything wrong? Why wont the kernel unpack on this
machine?
Has anyone else experienced the same problem?
Any help would be appreciated. I'm out of ideas myself. :-)
Best regards, Jonas Mixter
