It's the standard one from the sarge installation, extended by the automatically added entry for 2.6.16-2-686 which is simlar to the 2.4 entry from sarge (with version numbers replaced, of course).

Another person replied directly to my e-mail address that we should retry acpi=off in the boot config, which we'll do tomorrow. Thanks!
