Known incompatibility between the Linuxant drivers and 2.6.15. A patch
is available and will be included in the next driver version (which
should arrive shortly).
Boot from an external device (e.g. Live CD, http://www.grml.org), chroot
into your installation and purge any traces of the Linuxant driver. The
System should boot fine afterwards.
