Taking a look at my system, this is where the ATA and firewire probe
happens. I've had hangs here if interrupts are broken. Its likely that
ACPI on your system has bogus routing information and this causes ATA to
hang.

I didn't see if your system boots when ACPI is disabled. If it does, then,
well, join the club :)
