I found a way to get more chances of kernel panics now. If I run
VirtualBox with Windows XP Pro. SP3 (IE6) virtual machine that uses
256 MB of RAM, I have better chances of getting kernel panics. I will
have to try again and maybe try 1 GB of RAM this time.

BOO YEAH! Finally, I reproduced the kernel panic error outside of my old
Debian box. It is finally confirmed! Basically, I noticed more chances
of getting machine codes and kernel panics when I use VirtualBox's
Windows XP Pro. SP3. Over the weekend, it hit me that I need to try
this. I couldn't get it to read my old premade image, so I made a new
image and bingo reproduced! I guess VirtualBox is more demanding or
something?

Sheesh, that took almost a half of a year to reproduce this outside of
my old OS. :P Yay! Now, need to get rid of this old hardwares (probably
at the end of this year (after Chrismtas' return day?) when I upgrade my
Windows box). :(

Why were you even bothering to try it under another OS? I thought the
messages you were getting under Linux were pretty clear already.

Because I needed proof/evidences that it wasn't caused my 2005's Debian
installation.
