Try disabling framebuffer.
Code:
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/kernel-2.6.1 root=/dev/hda3 vga=normal


ps. You can edit your kernel line at boot time by pressing e twice from the GRUB menu.

hmm, it seemed like it was going to work at first.
but then it did the screen junk thing again.
I think I compiled framebuffer support in, should i just build a new new kernel?
