I attempted to boot linux-image-2.6.17-2-686-bigmem and also had this
failure. This kernel was from backports.org, _but_ only these changes had
been made:
linux-2.6 (2.6.17-8~bpo.1) sarge-backports; urgency=low
* Rebuilt for sarge.
* Built using gcc-3.3 and python2.4.
* Disabled ABI check.

so I think it is worth following up to this bug.
I will of course send this report to the backports people too.
Note that linux-image-2.6.16-2-686-smp from the same source worked
(same level of changes, just a recompile basically).
The console message right before the hang was
ts: Compaq touchscreen protocol output
The first few lines after that are

I have the hardware attached to a KVM and the serial port connected to a
serial concentrator.

I saw the comment about blacklisting 8250_pnp but did not try this.
I have hotplug-utils and udev installed, I don't understand why
/etc/hotplug should have anything to do with this problem but perhaps it
does. FWIW,
% ls /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d

This file belongs to the (sarge) libsane package and should have no
relevance to this discussion.
