Comment (by mmlr):

 I've identified the 0906 BIOS update as the one resolving this. ASUS says
 in their log: "Updated the literal string of SATA SSD displayed in BIOS
 setup.", which I couldn't verify, i.e. the strings looked the same to me
 at first glance, though both disks are actually listed as ATA so this may
 not even apply. It definitely changed something in the ATA init sequence
 which makes it not lock up anymore. I've downgraded to 0802 again and I'm
 now investigating a bit more. In either case, the up- and downgrades
 worked for me when using the
 [[http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEeePC/HowTo/UpgradeBIOS|Ubuntu
 instructions]] (placing the file renamed to 900.ROM on a 16MB FAT16
 formated partition).
