No worries, not like these machines are useful for much beyond museum
pieces any more ;) Sorry about the pastebin.ca though, I didn't
realize that they were gone.

As for later kernels, I have no idea tbh. Currently they seem to run
flawless with noapic, so that is what I use when installing and
running them. I do know that the Debian Squeeze installer chokes if I
don't use noapic, however.

If you are interested in some closure, I suppose I could take a shot
at installing something a little more recent and see if I can get away
with removing noapic though. Just let me know what kernel source
(vanilla/deb sid/etc), version, or any particular .config options that
you would like me to test, and I can see about pasting the console
terminal output when running without noapic disabled. I won't use a
pastebin this time, I promise ;)
