Playback would stop as soon as I tried to access the main web
interface.   Menu navigation also caused drop outs.  This was while I
was playing FLAC files (so it would be transcoding).  The server runs
on a dedicated linux box (XP2200 with 512MB). I did wait for the
rescan to complete.

This is definetly not normal behaviour. While most of my collection is MP3 I'm happily running slimserver on such low spec machines as a Via C3/600 to feed real streams to my SliMP3 - running mplayer -> lame transcoding.

Do you have some more details about what exactly you did when you encountered the drop outs? What page? What menu on the player? etc. With no information about problems there won't be a fix.

I've wanted to buy a squeezebox for a long while.. But it is hard to
do when 6.x doesn't work with my slimp3.

You could expect much better performance from a SB2 for at least two important reasons: native FLAC support (no transcoding needed) and a huge buffer memory.
