lsmod | grep atl didn't get any hits and lsmod | grep b43 gives this:
Sounds right. In that case, file a bug against the b43 driver for your chipset.Unless it uses a different name I don't think my laptop uses the atl1c driver. I don't think it's a bug in the b43 firmware since that works fine once it's installed. I would guess it's a hardware probe of some sort that locks up when it encounters the wireless NIC without firmware.
