I found a way to 100% reproduce the kernel "hang" while booting 2.6.33. 
The symptoms will look like here:

http://wpkg.org/files/i7_hang/


To hang the kernel while booting, just tap repeatedly on the keyboard as 
soon as the bootloader starts loading the kernel.

The kernel hangs for me every time as I do it.

If it matters, I use a USB keyboard (as a matter of fact, two USB 
keyboards are connected as its a multiseat PC, although I tap the keys 
on only one of them).
