Hello

> I assume it worked OK in 2.6.12.
Yes, sorry, forgot to mention that.

It seems you had a good hunch.

> a) Compare /proc/interrupts for 2.6.12 and 2.6.13-rc6
/proc/interrputs for 2.6.12:
CPU0
0: 76133896 XT-PIC timer
1: 1170 XT-PIC i8042
2: 0 XT-PIC cascade
9: 0 XT-PIC acpi

/proc/interrputs for 2.6.13:
CPU0
0: 851172 XT-PIC timer
1: 802 XT-PIC i8042

5: 0 XT-PIC eth1

What is missing is acpi on irq9

It seemed like ACPI was dead so I did `make menuconfig` and checked
if it is enabled. It was not. After reenabling ACPI the machine
booted perfectly.

Anyway it should boot without ACPI I guess.
