I have the same problem with hang on boot with 2.6.39. It hangs at the same
point with the same message.

The problem seems to be fbcondecor. Recompile your initrd without fbcondecor
and all works well, of course without a pretty background.

After boot-up splash_manager -c set can set up a pretty background, but
splash_manager -c switch produces a dysfunctional initrd.
