2.6.32-46 (the kernel in the latest squeeze point release) shows this
problem. On a zx2000 here, it happens almost immediately during
filesystem creation when running d-i. :-( Trying to work around that
now by doing the filesystem creation on another machine so that we can
get a basic installation done, then test different kernels.

Also found that the kernel in wheezy d-i B4
(linux-image-3.2.0-4-mckinley_3.2.32-1_ia64.deb) causes the machine to
lock up while loading the initramfs \o/
