Dan,
The dmesg output turned out to not help too much, it just became clear that these were two very different kernels.

However, there is one kernel option that Knoppix is using that you might try to add to the Ubuntu build:
 libata.force=noncq

You can get a little more information on this here:

http://www.howtoeverything.net/linux/hardware/ubuntu-freeze-issue-after-ssd-upgrade

Basically, if you've got SSD drives and it gets in the 1.5Gb mode (which it is), you can have serious problems.

Also, I concur with others on the list that you really should be using a 64-bit kernel.

HTH,
Matt

Ubuntu 12.04:

   BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-37-generic root=UUID=... ro quiet splash 
vt.handoff=7

Knoppix 7.2:

   lang=en apm=power-off initrd=minirt.gz nomce libata.force=noncq 
hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1 loglevel=1 BOOT_IMAGE=linux

If you're booting into knoppix anyway, might as well also post the dmesg
output from knoppix so that we can compare the two.

The dmesg output can now be compared at:

- Ubuntu: http://www.blazemonger.com/dmesg.txt
- Knoppix: http://www.blazemonger.com/dmesg-knoppix.txt

Thank you for your help so far.
