Nope, none of those

Yep, already saw it. acpi=off worked for him, but as I already said
didn't work for me.

Yeah, that's what I already did.
"Marking TSC unstable due to TSC halts in idle" disappears with
acpi=off, but I noticed that _with_ quiet option, this shows up: "IO
APIC resources could be not be allocated". From looking around, it seems
that this is not a critical error. It does still show up with acpi=off,
though.

When not using acpi=off, the screen changes brightness (becomes a little
brighter) and the output mentions something about video card being an
input, right before the process stops.
I've already tried using xdriver=vesa and xdriver=trident and text mode
-- nothing helps so far.
It's interesting that the freeze is not actually a freeze -- if I press
keys on the keyboard, the letters show up on screen, they just don't do
anything. Pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del reboots the system.
