Disclaimer: I have no first hand experience with this problem, I'm just
trying to combine information I've been picking up, so take the
following with a grain of salt.
Apparently, recent versions of Mac OS X update the PMU firmware such
that a hard shutdown happens if older Linux kernels try to change the
CPU frequency or put the machine to sleep. The only remedy seems to be
using a very recent benh kernel or disabling CPU frequency scaling in
the kernel (if you don't need sleep).
