Re: Cannot enable APIC with 2.6.2

[Robert Hancock]

It is not strictly related to ACPI, but many newer systems that support APIC
(and, for Pentium 4 machines, HyperThreading as well) don't export any
"old-style" MP tables that describe the IO APIC (or the HT CPU siblings),
and these can only be detected through ACPI.
