Welcome.

My first question is:

I'm having some trouble getting ACPI working. It must be disabled in
GRUB's
boot params or else the boot goes to 'Uncompressing Linux..... OK' and
freezes up. The only way to do anything is hold in the power button
until it
shuts down, then restarting.

Add "acpi=off" to your boot params so you can get a working system, then
I'd read:

Without knowing more, it *may* be a hardware conflict causing a acpi
enabled kernel to lock up.
