To whoever might be interested:

(NOTE: I am still running under RH7.1)

I too have almost an identical system as below.  I have been playing
around with a bunch of the 2.4 kernels over the weekend and found I was
able to boot up just fine with my BIOS (1014) set to MPS 1.4.  However,
I am still using the boot NOAPIC option.


Right now I am running under 2.4.18.
