That's with 2.6.25 vanilla, right ? 

Can you provide a bootlog from that kernel with noapictimer on the
kernel command line ?

Also as it reaches at least init it would be great to get a bootlog
for a boot w/o any command line options via netconsole (see
Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt)

Thanks,
