Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic

Asus F5N laptop freezes on restart after displaying the message "Will now restart." It will not respond to any key and has to be powered off by depressing the power button. Shutting down X and unloading nVidia and snd-hda-intel drivers does not help. Will not reboot from single user mode with the same symptoms. Passing "reboot=b" parameter to the kernel does not help either. This affects Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop CD (fails to reboot after initial install) and the current 2.6.22-14-generic SMP kernel. In addition to this information, dmidecode command output is attached.
