The kernel boots and when init.d starts, the screen switches off, the CPU fan goes to Max speed, and a few minutes later all goes quiet and it appears to have powered off.
I usually boot with noapictimer and if I disable ACPI totally, the clock references don't work and the timebase goes wrong. (Playing a MP3 is quite an entertaining event as it sounds like an old vinyl record player with a slipping drive belt)
