is the kernel loading at all before it reboots?  if you're not sure
you should try messing around in the grub shell at the bootloader
menu to see if there's some cmdline options that disclose/fix the
problem.  if the pre-initrd loading causes the reboot, maybe booting
with different args (like noapic or something) might circumvent it?
