From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130 Description of problem: The installer kernel hangs after booting from CD or floppy on Tyan S1686S motherboard with a Pentium II CPU. It happens after enabling the local APIC and the last message displayed is: ESR: value before enabling vector: 00000004 Passing apic, noapic or noprobe options to the kernel does not make a difference. This problem is around since limbo. Is it really neccessary to have APIC support enabled by default in the installer kernel? How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from CD or floppy 2. Press enter at "boot:" prompt Actual Results: Kernel hangs
