I ran with acpi=off in grub.conf after I # mv /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/cpufreq /tmp This worked.
Actually the idea was to disable cpufreq without disabling acpi...
But as you later replaced "acpi=off" with "processor.max_cstate=1", that gets us the same information -- the failure still happens w/o cpufreq.
However, I'm surprised that "processor.max_cstate=1" was ineffective in making the issue go away when "idle=poll" worked... CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y on this kernel?
Can you boot 2.6.27 with "idle=halt"?
