Hi Dave,

booting without lapic allowed it to boot but now I get
...
Local APIC disabled by BIOS -- you can enable it with "lapic"
...
Local APIC not detected. Using dummy APIC emulation.
  which means more processor overhead - right?

also cpuspeed doesn't work anymore - I don't have a cpufreq dir

I don't get the following messages with kernel 2798
 powernow: PowerNOW! Technology present. Can scale: frequency and voltage.
Nov  1 19:33:34 joker4 kernel: powernow: SGTC: 10000
Nov  1 19:33:34 joker4 kernel: powernow: Minimum speed 300 MHz. Maximum 
speed 850 M
Hz.
Nov  1 19:33:34 joker4 kernel: powernow-k8: Processor cpuid 670 not 
supported
