Florent, Yes, there's some very low-level problem going on, as the kernel decompression, i.e., the dots after the "loading 2.4.20-8smp" message, is done by a very basic bit of assembly code that's only using minimal parts of the system.
It *could* be memory, you could try memtest86 from http://www.memtest86.com/ They have a source+binary package and pre-built ISOs. -- David N.
