Over the last week or so, I have seen a slight change in boot behaviour
- removing the "quiet" parameter no longer makes much difference. It now
seems to take 2 or 3 boots without the "quiet" parameter, with the
system hanging on the first 1 or 2 attempts, then booting successfully.

I have tried version linux-image-2.6.32-020632rc8-generic but have the
same problem.

I took the opportunity to note the final message I see when the system
hangs, just in case they might be useful - as follows:

When trying linux-image-2.6.32-020632rc8-generic the last console
message was:

[0.684322] Critical temperature reached (2211 C), shutting down

With the released version of linux-2.6.31-15-generic, the last console
message is either something very similar to one of these three classes
of message:

[0.797960] ACPI Error: No installed handler for fixed event [00000000]
20090521 event-306

[0.797463] ACPI Error: No handler or method for GPE[19], disabling event

[0.783792] ata_piix 0000:00:1f.1 PCI INT A -> GSI 16 ....

The time in brackets varies on each boot attempt, but is always around
the 0.78 mark. In the case of the first and second example message, they
were repeated three times with small variations in the numbers, e.g.
GPE[19], GPE[1C] and GPE[1E].

I have also had a look through my dmesg output and do not see any
similar messages.


It is also worth pointing out that I have no problems with the machine once it 
has booted, or booting into Windows instead of Ubuntu.
