Description of problem: I have a dual Xeon E5520. When I enable kdump, on crash the machine tries to boot the second kernel. The second kernel starts booting but it hangs right after the line: Kernel command line: ro pci=noacpi earlyprintk=serial,ttyS0,9600n8 root=/dev/mapper/vg_splat-lv_current vmalloc=256M panic=15 console=ttyS0 3 quiet irqpoll maxcpus=1 memmap=exactmap memmap=640K@0K mK... NOTE: If I add to the first kernel the noapic flag the problem disappears.

I can not access it. (Access denied) Can you direct me to a patch for this issue. Thanks in advance.
I have also added some printouts and the second kernel get's stuck in calibrate_delay.
