I am seeing a similar problem (no hang but an immediate reboot) on the
same distro. I tried to bisect but got no good kernel in the end.

To clarify things I recompiled again 2.6.30.1 with the orginial .config
and it also failed to boot (I was happy to have renamed it so the
working kernel was still available). I suspected a recent gcc 4.3
upgrade so downgraded gcc, but no luck, still getting the same problem.
So for now I am quite stuck, but there is clearly a bad problem
somewhere...
