Yes, I think a HW list along with the SW being tried would likely prove helpful here.

People,

I have been trying to build a usable PC out of old - but previously
unused hardware (motherboards, CPUs, RAM, 80GB Seagate disks, power
supplies) - but whatever combination I use I continually get core dumps
- I have reinstalled on numerous occasions and sometimes the PC works
for hours without a problem and then fails - but quite frequently it
fails on bootup!  I have tried with 2G RAM but that had problems so I
went back to 1G thinking that one SIMM might be faulty but no
combination works for any reasonable length of time.

Which CPU are you using? Unless it's a hardware defect somewhere, I'm inclined to believe you could be trying to run an incompatible kernel.
