The glass is half full. Always.

Did you get it to boot with 271146 as I suggested? This would really
help and see if we are hitting the same issue or not.

C'mon, don't give up now. Try the 271146, I'm trying to find out where
it exactly loops. I've done some testing and might be it'AHCI actually.

Warner Losh (the maintainer) sent at least 3 messages about this, he's
very cooperative I think.

I'll try the no-SMP thing now just to see how it works.
