System unable to finish loading with the current HEAD

[Petr Janda]

I reverted back to kernel compiled on 1st of October and it works again,

so the problem came to be between yesterday and 1st of October. I'll 
give boot -v and compiling the least amount of drivers a shot.

    This could be a tough one.  Does it boot on an older ISO?

    Sometimes having it boot with the console on the serial port yields
    more information.  boot -v might help in addition to that.  If we can't
    get any clues from that you could try compiling up a kernel with as 
    many drivers as possible removed (leaving just the console/video/disk
    driver).  If it is a SMP box you could try booting with a UP kernel.
