The SMP kernel boot fails(rather locks up system). But when use "noapic" it boots fine. Is it that my system "APIC" is bad? Will "noapic" have performance impact (IRQ routing,etc)? My system is a Uni processor with HT enabled. with regards, Anil __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail Stay connected, organized, and protected.
