I can confirm problems with Feisty: both
vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic (immediate reboot upon initiating boot, starting a perpetual reboot cycle if machine is left unattended :) )
vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-lowlatency (hangs immediately on boot)
on my Asus M300N. Is it ACPI or some misconfiguration of the initrd.img??

I can't confirm this, but I believe that on a couple occasions, the vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic kernel *might* have booted when the machine was unattended (i.e. I came back to it, and it was running, and there isn't any way I know of that it would've automatically selected my fall-back kernel of 2.6.17-11 from Edgy). The machine was upgraded from Edgy, by the way. I'm very keen to resolve this issue.
