Hi Brad,

I'm glad that showed the problem.  Yes, the only difference between the two is just the boot_delay argument.

Thanks,
J Silverman

This definitely shows what happened. Thank you.

pmu intr 02 02

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.
