mm1 worked.

to be clear, my append line looks like

append="gdb console=gdb pci=biosirq" and maybe some other stuff on there

to get my machine to boot in single processor mode, I have to add nosmp
and acpi=off

if I don't add acpi=off I get apic errors on my cpus, as well as if I say
noapic like the boot process says to, it says

amd errata #22 may be present. in the event of instability boot with the
noapic option
