As the subject heading says,
Sony Vaio laptops can't use pnpbios driver in -ac15 or -ac16.
A fix is being worked on. See the "PnP BIOS + 2.4.9-ac16 = no boot"
thread.

(For those following this thread ...)
2.4.10-ac3 contains the patches required for Sony Vaio laptops
with buggy PnP BIOSes to use the kernel PnP BIOS driver.
