I just want to let you guys know that I was able to get the serial port stuff setup and was able to capture the last kernel message before the Powerbook would shutdown on start up (thanks again Finn for the serial cable tip!) Here it is:
This definitely shows what happened. Thank you. [snip]
pmu intr 02 02 pmu_init: timed out acking intrs Warning: no ADB interface detected
This appears to be the fundamental problem. For some reason, this time it can't initialize the PMU properly. I suspect that if we start to initialize the PMU but don't finish, it gets unhappy. The successful boot is only different by the arguments, not a different kernel? It looks like the timing must change such that the messages to the PMU get out of sync. These are the hard ones to debug because adding extra code changes the behavior.
