1 Never mind I am an idiot! My first assumption was correct acpi troubles.
2 It really helps if you type acpi instead of apci. I guess the question
3 now is "why now and not before?". Kernel version maybe? Suggestions?

16 Something strange has occurred I just tried booting a laptop with one of
17 my recent builds and after I hit enter at the boot loader things begin
18 to load and when the screen flashes like it is kicking over to the
19 splash image everything stops. The screen goes blank and the cd stops
20 spinning. Weird thing is that I have used this laptop for testing on
21 many previous builds and everything was fine. The only thing I have
22 changed in the kernel in several weeks was disabling the 4k_Stacks. Has
23 anyone else had this happen? Or have any suggestions? I have tested the
24 build on 3 other workstations and all seems well.
