[Bug 251652] [NEW] System won't boot with kernel 2.6.24-20-generic Ubuntu 8.04.1

[Ferdi]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image

When trying to boot with kernel 2.6.24-20-generic (version 2.6.24-20.37), the system won't boot. It stops displaying the message "Starting up" on screen. When booting in recovery mode, the boot process halts after displaying the line about testing the processor for the HLT instruction.
Booting with kernel 2.6.24-19 is no problem at all. Works like a charm...

My system:
Motherboard: Asus A7V600-X (latest bios)
Processor: AMD Sempron 2500+
Memory: 1024 MB 400MHz DDR
Video: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AP [Radeon 9600] rev 0, Mem @ 0xe0000000/28, 0xbf800000/16, I/O @ 0xd800/8, BIOS @ 0xdffe0000/17
Further hardware specs are tot be found in the attached kernel logging from booting kernel 2.6.24-19 after failing to boot 2.6.24-20
