I will try out today's linux-next later today (if I can find the time for it). Just in case it helps track down the problem: Adding percpu=100000 to the kernel command line got the thing booting for me. The number itself was picked at random, but it worked on the first try. The machine is a single-core P4 3.0 GHz with HT, 1G RAM, using slightly modified F9 config.
