EDIT: blacklisting b43-pci-bridge and rebuilding the initramfs allows the machine to boot. I installed the Broadcom STA driver and so far it seem to work fine.

1. What type of boot failure are you experiencing? I am getting a flashing text cursor on a black screen.
2. How does one go about rebuilding initramfs? What does that do?
3. What could I do to begin troubleshooting or diagnose a failed boot?
