From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Charles Landau Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2009 18:22:46 +0000 Subject: Gateway DX4720-03 apic problem Message-Id: <497CADF6.10703@macslab.com> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-ia64@vger.kernel.org I have a new Gateway DX4720-03 PC and have discovered that it won't install Fedora 10 unless I give the kernel boot option "noapic" or "nolapic". This system's processor is the Intel Pentium Dual Core E5200. It would seem that this is either a kernel bug to be fixed, or a documentation bug so users of this machine know about the workaround. I'll report the bug if someone will tell me how.
