-My machine (kernel 2.4.21) hung after printing this. (Athlon 2000 XP on an AD77 motherboard (KT400)). It is caused by [APIC] support in the kernel. Booting with the "noapic" kernel flag didn't fix it (although it made the machine go into an infinite loop printing an error about apic on cpu ). Recompiling the kernel without APIC support resolved
this.

this. Note that the same motherboards will need the "nolapic" kernel flag to boot Knoppix - otherwise the screen just turns black and the pc hangs
