Hello!

My Mac mini freezes completely and has to be restarted the hard way.
No output to /var/log/dmesg or /var/log/messages before freeze.
NumLock key on keyboard doesn't respond anymore.
I can ping the machine, but not login via ssh anymore.

I'm not sure this is anyhow related to that bug, but what I observed too
is:

* I cannot do anything in the rEFIt shell (boot loader) (frozen? Wrong 
keyboard?).
* When booting into "Memcheck", memcheck never starts (freezing too?).

To install Hardy I did this: run disktool in Mac OS (shrink FS), install rEFIt 
via Mac OS,
sync MBR and GPT via rEFIt, boot and install via hardy's desktop-iso (important 
was to install boot loader (=grub) to the partition,
not to the disk(=MBR)), resync MBR and GPT again. Since then I can start Hardy 
without problems via rEFIt and grub.

I'm using a default (cable) USB PC keyboard and a (cable) USB mouse.
The Mac mini is upgraded to 2 GB and has no swap device.

Erik
