Total lockup - no sysrq, no messages, no nothing. I've mostly bisected it (what the _hell_ did we do before "git bisect"?), and right now I know: commit 9aaed2b42d00d4abb2748d72d599a8033600e2bf is bad (that's Len's "pull trivial into test branch") commit. v2.6.19-rc2 seems all good. Which leaves a chunk of just a few ACPI commits left to bisect. I'll do five or so more reboots, and I should be able to tell exactly which commit breaks. It almost always locks up very early during boot (generally during the "initializing udev" phase), although sometimes it survives a bit further..
