1 I have an Asus Z92F laptop - a modification of Asus A6F model
2
3 ICH7 chipset
4 CoreDuo T2250
5 1,5GB DDR2
6 Intel 950 graphics
7 ATA100 HD 80GB

9 My problem with it is that it fails to boot into linux when working only
10 on battery. When I plug the power supply and do a fresh boot kernel
11 loads properly.
12 Boot proces freezes when kernel enumerates block devices, it is unable
13 to identify my hard drive.
14
15 I've been trying with different kernel versions (2.6.20 - 2.6.24), and
16 kernel settings - no luck - the only way to boot into linux is to
17 connect to power supply.

19 I'll appreciate any advice
