I though APIC was part of ACPI. (In the BIOS for that board the option to enable/disable APIC is in the power menu and is called "ACPI APIC support"). > but what stack backtrace do you get when you > > - boot the opensolaris livecd kernel with options > -kd > (type 'e' twice in the initial grub menu, append > option > -kd at the end of the kernel$ line, ESC and 'b' > boots ) > > - at the kmdb prompt > > ::bp pcplusmp`apic_error_intr > ::cont > > - the kernel should start, and we should re-enter > kmdb > as soon as the first apic error interrupt is > signaled. > The following command prints the stack backtrace: > > ::stack I get: pcplusmp`apic_error_intr() displatch_hilevel+0x1f(f1, 0) do_interrupt+0xbe(ffffff00074d1ee0, 0) _interrupt+0xba() dispatch_hilevel+0x1a(d1, 0) switch_sp_and_call+0x13() do_interrupt+0xd9(fffffffffbc4d870, 2d81fb0) _interrupt+0xba() pcplusmp`apic_cpu_start+0x197(1, ffffff01c0a66000) mach_cpu_start+0x22(ffffff01c0909080, ffffff01c0a66000) start_cpu+0x59(1) start_other_cpus+0x1a5(0) main+0x286() _locore_start+0x92() Obviously I had to re-type all that, so I might have made some mistakes, although I was as careful as possible to copy it exactly. Thanks for your help with this. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
