 I have an HP Pavillion dv9000 (dv9420us).  I have a similar experience,
 but I've also found a work-around.
 
 If, when the the BIOS Splash screen is just about to disappear, one
 starts pressing <spacebar>, then the boot slice prompt comes up.  Press
 <enter> and the laptop boots normally.  It's a big hassle, but it works.
