Bug#386985: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7: noacpi does not resolve issue

[James Zuelow <e5z8652@zuelow.net>]

Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7
Version: 2.6.17-9
Followup-For: Bug #386985


Got this same hang on a Sony VAIO PCG-FXA49.
2.6.16-2-k7 packages work fine, both revisions of the 2.6.17-2-k7 packages hang on this machine (KM133), but work on KM266 desktop.

Booting with noacpi (editing grub command line directly, or changing kopt values in menu.1st and update-grub) does not help.
