I found that someone localised the problem. Yes it is not distribution specific.
Here is the link http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=82052 quote some useful lines: "The only way to boot is to append acpi=off paramter. ______Problem is caused by pcmcia and pcmcia_core acpi modules(strange indeed that they are loaded,becouse my laptop has a express not pcmcia slot neutral)______ Boot with acpi=off and add these modules in rc.conf with ! to disable them from loading with system,boot again normally and everything will work fine now with acpi enabled I also notice that people with similar hardware like my netbook(AMD chipset)have same problems" I think now the fix will be trivial.
