Hrmpf. Netconsole should work.
Enable CONFIG_NETCONSOLE and compile the network driver into your
kernel. See Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt for the kernel
command line option.
run 'netcat -u -l -p <portnr>' on the host.
I feared that.
Aah.

ACPI does only take care of one CPU
ACPI: processor limited to max C-state 1
ACPI: CPU0 (power states: C1[C1] C3[C3])
ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports 8 throttling states)
but there is no entry for the second CPU.
Also it seems that the power state limit is possibly ignored.
That would explain the hang, as TSC and local APIC might get stuck.
Broken BIOS/ACPI I fear. Can you please go to
http://www.linuxfirmwarekit.org/download.php
and run the CD on your laptop. It tests the BIOS / ACPI correctness.
The broadcast mode is not set up for one shot.
Not now.
