I'm having a problem with kernel 2.6.18-r6. My laptop hangs during boot,
right after detecting the mouse and the keyboard. I doesn't matter
whether I enable initrd or not, it dies anyway. No kernel panic, no oops
messages, it simply freezes.

The funny thing is that sometimes it keeps running a little more
(detects the hard disk, sometimes even the dvd drive), and 1 in 100
times, everything works fine and it boots normally.

I'm currently running kernel 2.6.13 and everything works fine (despite
the things that need >2.6.13 to work).

I attach my kernel config, maybe someone knows what I'm doing wrong.
