This is my vote also.

I upgraded ram in my iceBook through a local dealer, his installation, 
and immediately had kernal panics. However, it would boot in OS9 with 
that memory upgrade. So, I took it out and everything was cool. Took it 
in for new memory and it worked great after that. 

I can imagine marginal memory (as opposed to bad memory) might pass a 
boot check but not work well during operation such that you have the 
problems you are describing. Apparently, OSX is more sensitive to bad 
memory that previous OSes.
