I've been running 8.04 beta for a while now, with kernel 2.6.22-14 the system boots and runs just fine. However, with the recent updates to the kernel 2.6.22-15 and then to 2.6.22-16 the system fails to boot and "hangs" at the "loading" screen with the blue progress bar just moving back and forward. In the trimmed menu.lst only the last option boots.
