Thanks for verifying that "noapic" is a sufficient workaround.
I see you are now running 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6 --
I assume it also fails to boot if you drop off the "noapic" parameter?
Another workaround might be to use "acpi=noirq" -- as this box
has an MP table. But this would be a just another workaround...
It turns out that Thomas Renninger already found the root cause
of this failure:

The _PRT entries are garbled, just like they were in bug 1164
Package (0x04)
{
0x0012FFFF,
0x00,
0x00,
\_SB.PCI0.LNKA
},
Package (0x04)
{
0x0012FFFF,
0x01,
0x00,
\_SB.PCI0.LNKB
},
Package (0x04)
{
0x0012FFFF,
0x02,
0x00,
\_SB.PCI0.LNKC
},
Package (0x04)
{
0x0012FFFF,
0x03,
0x00,
\_SB.PCI0.LNKD
The Links should be the 3rd entry, not the 4th.
At the time we got the BIOS fixed, but it turns out we should
have implemented a kernel workaround for this BIOS bug then
because Windows continues to allow systems to ship with this bug.
