Marc,
if more / other information is needed let me know.
I'll try to go through the points as described in
/usr/src/linux/REPORTING-BUGS:
[1.] Bug reported on system startup.
[2.] no obvious problem detected besides this message
besides apic errors on both CPUs.
[3.] kernel BUG at buffer.c:827! - invalid operand: 0000 - CPU: 0
[4.] Linux version 2.4.0-test11 (root@nmb) (gcc version 2.95.2 19991024
(release)) #1 SMP
[5.] output on system startup:
