This maybe an MTRR issue. I experienced that after a BIOS upgrade on a DG965WH. The system boots so extremely slow that you could think it stopped responding at all, something like 10 seconds for each line of kernel output with pauses of 5 minutes in between sometimes. This is the effect of a BIOS bug, maybe an upgrade helps for you.
Have a look at this thread: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=157232 Note that they're talking about 64bit Linux, but this affects 32bit also.
Kernel 2.6.25 includes a workaround which detects this issue and uses only so much RAM as possible without a slowdown.
