Yeah, I can easily make it work by turning it off or supplying pci=noacpi. 
However, I'm pursuing this problem to develop a fix for the issue.

The new ACPI PCI routing seems to cause other people problems as well.. I've 
seen mention on various web pages. Not really a good situation to leave these 
problems in the OS.

Wish I had docs on the nforce2 chipset. Sigh.
