Using nosmp on a system with a "broken" local APIC like VMWare requires also using the "nolapic" and "noapic" options along-side "nosmp"... There isn't much we can do about the functionality provided by VMWare itself, so I'm going to mark this as CANTFIX, but thanks for reporting it. Hopefully it will help others in the same situation. |
