I was able to dump the bootlog of my working kernel, you can find it here: 
http://cl.ly/450I3o2U2q0W3C0I1g06

I think the problem resides in between the following two lines:

> Expanded resource reserved due to conflict with PCI Bus 0000:00
> Switching to clocksource xen


I saw that on my "hanging" kernel I'm not getting the "Switching to.." message 
while on the working one I do.
Do you know what may be the culprit? I'm pretty much willing to debug the 
kernel a little bit but I can't find the set of instructions
of the boot, in particular I don't know where are the calls to those functions 
and there is way too much code for me to read.

Can somebody help me to sort this out? Thanks!
