Description Tomki 2003-01-17 23:28:30 UTC
Hardware: HP Omnibook 4150 which I have installed at least 2 different versions
of Linux onto, in the past.  Nothing modern though.
PII 366
On bootup, I get the Kernel panic message.   I have attempted giving the boot
some parameters:
'gentoo noapic noscsi acpi=no', but I still get the halt.  A couple times it
didn't print out the 
'<0>Kernel panick: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!' message, and simply printed
out the 'Code: ' line above it.
The code line in the frozen screen I see right now is:
'Code: 39 7a 04 74 13 89 d3 8b 13 85 d2 75 f3 b9 01 00 00 00 5b 5e' if that
means anything to you.  heh
Above all that is a large series of 8-digit hex number columns going off the screen.

1.4rc2 livecd isnt taking kernel parameters correctly. ie: apci=off,etc

the newest experimental livecd had it disabled by default. but apic
is still enabled.

you may want to try it.

This problem appears to be resolved in the 2003-01-14 livecd for X86 on my laptop.   
Boot without parameters succeeds, stock.
Thanks!
