I don't think it's a GUI issue because this is still before the kernel
starts. Doesn't matter whether I boot 'linux' or 'linux text'.

But you're right, I should have included my system config:

Motherboard: MSI K7N420 Pro
CPU: Athlon XP
Memory: 256 MB
3ware Escalade 7000-2 RAID controller
2x IBM Deskstar 120GXP 40GB hard drives
Adaptec AIC-7850 SCSI controller
AVM FritzCard PCI 2.0
Matrox Millennium G550 graphics card
Creative Labs CT4810 sound card
