The last SMP kernel to boot successfully on my dual PIII box was
2.6.14.1.1637smp_FC4. All non-SMP kernels boot successfully. The SMP
kernels (after 1637) do not recognize the network or video cards.
So I tried this kernel to see if it would boot.
The 1637 shows this message in dmesg:
ACPI: BIOS age (2000) fails cutoff (2001), acpi=force is required to
enable ACPI
The later kernels, including 1654, do not show this message.
They appears to enable ACPI in both SMP and non-SMP versions.
Please provide suggestions for tests, or instructions for information
gathering, or a bug ticket where I can attach logs, etc.
