Public bug reported: 2.6.28-17-generic is running fine. Any newer kernel starting from 2.6.31-17 does not boot. Trouble seems related to mptspi driver, messages are hard to capture since boot fails, but goes something like this:
mptspi initiating bringup issuing reset for mpt_config initiating recovery unexpected doorbell active after a long delay dumps the stack and blinking keyboard.
