There's no inherent reason your P2B shouldn't boot. I know for a fact that its successor, the P3B-F, boots just fine.
Your .config contains a lot of stuff not needed for booting, you should eliminate it and try a minimal .config. In your case, I'd definitely remove
CONFIG_EDD=y CONFIG_ACPI=y CONFIG_FB=y
and possibly also
CONFIG_ISAPNP=y CONFIG_SENSORS=y
You can always add them back once you've identified the breakage. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
