Hi,

This message is displayed as I am booting linux 2.4.19 on an
SiS 648 motherboard:

IO APIC #2......
.... register #00: 02000000
.......    : physical APIC id: 02
.... register #01: 00178014
.......     : max redirection entries: 0017
.......     : PRQ implemented: 1
.......     : IO APIC version: 0014
 WARNING: unexpected IO-APIC, please mail
          to linux-smp@vger.kernel.org

This is a single processor system that
I just put together and if I turn on APIC Mode in the Award
BIOS then no PCI devices and the on motherboard network controller
do not work.  The motherboard is a AOpen AX45-8XN with onboard
sound and networking.  The CPU is an Intel 2.4GHZ Pentium 4.

If I turn off the APIC Mode in the BIOS I can boot and get all
devices to work and of course the above message goes away but
I don't now what other performance or problems it causes to
have the APIC mode turned off?

I have attached two boot logs, the first with APIC Mode on
and the second without it on.  Is there anything I can do
to get APIC mode turned on and devices working?

Thanks,
Tim Lee
