My boot dmesg output

Mandriva-2001.1 (ext4 KDE4) init-2.86 will stop my bootup & requires me to
press the ctrl-c keys to continue. This happens on my "Asus" motherboard.
However, I can run Mandriva-2009.1 (ext4 KDE4) with the same kernel on my "MSI"
motherboard & there is no boot hangup.

Kernel-2.6.29 was configured & compiled by me to replace the Mandriva
distribution kernel & does not need an "initrd"image. I was using this same
kernel with my old Mandriva-2008 (ext3 Kde3) prior to upgrading to
Mandriva-2009.1 & it had no problems booting my "Asus" or "MSI" motherboards.

I see there is a Bug# 11544 that is similar. I've tried passing the acpi=off,
noapic & nolapic to the kernel but they didn't help. 

I was able to boot by passing the init=/bin/bash option, so it seems the
/sbin/init file is ok. Also, I have a seperate /boot ext3 for the "Grub" boot
images.

I hope you can resolve this. Thank you
