It's something HP specific.  Last time I tackled this, back in the earlier
3.x releases, we tracked it down to the second CPU not starting.  They
said something was wrong with my hardware, which seemed odd since it booted
3.0R fine.

One thing I also noticed was that it was actually much more likely to start
if powered up, rather than reset/rebooted.
