After today, I won't have physical access to the problem machine until 
January 2nd. So if you guys have any testing suggestions I need them soon 
if they are to get done before my vacation.
I do plan to try booting to level 1 to see if I can get a login prompt 
that might facilitate testing. The lockups do happen fairly late in the 
boot process. I never get to X, but maybe it will get far enough for 
a console login.
