What you see it the kernel diagnostic messages. In my diagnosticmessages
``Timecounters'' appear near the end, just before the harddisk
controller initialization. If your system stops with the message
you wrote, it might be some compability issues between your hardware
and the kernel.

You might narrow the problem down by experimenting with various
compability options in the bios. One example could be to enable (or
disable) SATA compability mode, PATA I think.
