After you copied the zImage to /vmlinuz did you remember to run
/sbin/lilo again?  That can cause that sort of hang at boot time.

        I guess that you've compiled in something that isn't on your system, =
or incompatible.  I am assuming you saved your old kernel image and the setti=
ngs for that kernel.  Look to see what key differences between the new kernel=
 and old kernel with:

                make menuconfig

        If you started out with one of the SuSE preinstall kernels, I believe=
 that they include a lot of things like chipset bug fixes.

        I would profile your entire machine from mboard chipsets to mouse typ=
e and make sure I have everything associated with those devices are compiled =
in the kernel.

                                                                             =
                                                                             =
