Hmmm... you could have tried with a single user mode bootstrap, that
could have avoided you going to the BIOS.
That was in fact the first thing I tried.
But the network interfaces are brought up in single user mode as well.
So I got the same
hang and no prompt.
(Why single user mode brings the network interfaces up is another
dubious story...)

^C could be unresponsive nevertheless, the process being stuck in kernel
space and thus completely oblivious of the signals thrown at it.
This would be a different problem hinting at a kernel bug...
