I added "noapic", it wouldn't shut down. (tried twice)
When I added "pci=noacpi" and "acpi=off", boot hung at the following
line: "ohci_hcd: block sizes: ed 64 to 64"; there were a lot of strange
messages I didn't recognize that streamed by, including segmentation
fault and a number of failure/error messages.
