With your patch I get a hang instead of a short hang and then the crash.
On the other hand it manages to enable the swap partition before hanging:

EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data 
mode.                            
VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) 
readonly.                                  
Freeing unused kernel memory: 88k 
freed                                        
Adding 131532k swap on /dev/hda1.  Priority:-1 extents:1
Has anyone booted 32 bit 2.5 fully into userspace?
