"ACPI: Attach the ACPI device to the ACPI handle as early as possible"

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.28-7-generic

The boot process stops at the point on the image attached below. I
tried with kernels 2.6.28-4 through 2.6.28-7, as well as custom
compiled 2.6.29-rc3. None of those boots properly. The 2.6.27 series
works fine.
