Okay, here's the story: In package base-installer, there is a script kernel/i386.sh that detects which kernel should be used based on a variety of factors, including CPU attributes. This detection is imperfect, and (while it worked in your case, MG), it does not override the -server kernel choice

My understanding of this issue is that it is really a GCC bug, since GCC uses CMOV when compiling for 686, even though it is an optional instruction. The traditional work-around is to compile for 586. I believe kernel option CONFIG_M586=y should fix this. Note that current Ubuntu Server kernels
