I'm bringing up this dual core laptop. The kernel hangs with these messages:
Intel machine check architecture supported. Intel machine check reporting enabled on CPU#1 CPU1: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TK-53 stepping 01 Total of 2 processors activated (6834.25 BogoMIPS). ENABLING IO-APIC IRQs ..TIMER: vector=0x31 apic1=0 pin1=2 apic2=-1 pin2=-1 If I append noapic on kernel options in grub then the machine does finish booting and I can log in so I'm not at a dead stop but I'd like to figure out what's going on. Any ideas where I might look for kernel config options that would effect this? I haven't found all the stuff I'm looking for in make menuconfig yet but grepping the kernel config file I've currently got this: laptop1 linux # cat .config | grep APIC CONFIG_X86_GOOD_APIC=y CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC=y CONFIG_X86_IO_APIC=y laptop1 linux # I think I really want IO_APICs with a dual processor so I'm wondering what else might be involved.
