Exclude possibly offending modules from initrd.
Add the modules to /etc/modprobe.conf.local:
blacklist processor
blacklist fan
blacklist thermal
then rebuild the initrd, best only for the newly installed x86_64 kernel:
cd /boot
mkinitrd -k vmlinuz-... -i initrd-...
You also should remove the splash=... boot param from the new kernel in
/boot/grub/menu.lst
and also replace the vga=... boot param against vga=normal.
Like that you should see more when the kernel is booting.
Also add a simple 1 as boot param there. This avoids that these modules get
loaded by other services later.
Now try to boot the kernel. Does it still reboot?
If it works, log in and do:
echo 0x1f >/sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level
modprobe fan; modprobe processor; modprobe thermal; dmesg >/tmp/dmesg
All in one line so that the dmesg command is still executed if it starts to
reboot. Then send the output of dmesg.
If it still does not boot, it happens even earlier and I still have a last
other idea how to get some more info out of the machine....
