Comment 3 for bug 322867

We need more information to get this solved. Try booting the new kernel without the splash screen active (remove that option from the grub menu). If possible try to get (take a picture or write down) the messages at the beginning. If the terminal is not changed during boot (shift pg up/down might let you scroll a bit).
Try the option "pause_on_oops=<nr secs>" to delay the processing whenever an oops occurs. This would give time to note down information. One usual suspect at that point: try to boot with "acpi=off" to see whether we got problems in that area.
