 Hi,

   I tried all the permutations of the above with the same result:
 the kernel hangs at NET: Registering protocol family 2.

 With nolapic it hangs at APIC: Using PIC for interrupt routing

 With acpi=off it boots but, obviously, everything acpi related
 does not work.
 
 anything else I can try? The laptop does not have a serial port,
 so I can't capture the dmesg output.
