Here's the offending line:

I got it to compile but it won't boot - it hangs right after the
'Uncompressing Linux... OK, booting the kernel' - I'm using .config
from 51-27 (attached)


and -51-27 worked just fine? I've uploaded -29 with the -28 io-apic changes undone (will re-apply them once Karsten has figured out what's wrong).

I too had the same problem booting -51-28 on my older SMP system at home. -51-29 just booted fine.


I missed getting -51-29 but just booted up -51-30 and all is well. Thanks.
Just out of curiosity, what was changed between -51-28, 29, and 30?
