Public bug reported:

I'm trying to install Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron" - Release Candidate
AMD64 but the computer is turned off just after the progress bar
"Loading the Linux Kernel" reaches 100%.

Hardware:
- Athlon 64 X2 4200
- Motherboard Asus M2N-MX SE, with Geforce 6100.
- HD IDE ST3120022A in the same PATA channel of the DVD LG GSA-H22N

I sucessfully installed the Debian Etch and run the lspci, with the
following output:

I've tried the following kernel options:
- noapic
- nolapic
- acpi=off
- irqpool
- From "http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9184"; earlyprintk=vga
- All combinations off the above options. The results were the same. Always.

Already tried to change several in BIOS, with no change.

The computer is turned off just after the progress bar "Loading the Linux
