This may not be any help, but this just came through Cooker Bug, and I don't
see that anyone mentioned kernel boot parameters.  NOTE his *last* sentence:

------- I'm having the same problem (freezing during boot when ACPI is
enabled) on a Toshiba Satellite 5105 installing from the PowerPack 9.2 DVD. 
Unfortunatly, the nolapic option didn't work for me.  I'm relatively new to
kernel options, so I may be applying incorrectly.  I added "nolapic" to my
append list in lilo.conf and then ran lilo, but it still freezes.  Are there
any other options to get this working?  I think it's also causing other
things to go wrong with my machine, like the sound not working.  My sound
didn't work with 9.1 until I enabled ACPI, then like magic, it was fine.
