Looks like the current beta still has a problem; see
http://lwn.net/Articles/227567/
which says
  * Systems with JMicron IDE(PATA) chipsets may experience a crash on
    boot. This was not fixed in time for beta release, but a planned
    kernel upload just after release will rectify the problem. A work
    around has not been tested, but would involve blacklisting the
    `generic` kernel module.  https://launchpad.net/bugs/84964
