Can you enable APIC_DEBUG debugging in "include/asm-i386/apic.h", and make
sure that you build the kernel with a big printk buffer. Then, in case
your distribution comes with a broken "dmesg" binary that doesn't show
more than about 20kB of data, compile this trivial program and run it
after bootup, and send the whole log out..

It would be a pity to have to boot with "noapic", since this is exactly
the kind of situation where you _want_ the extra interrupts.

- stupid-dmesg.c -
#include <sys/klog.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
static char buffer[128*1024];
int i;

i = klogctl(3, buffer, sizeof(buffer));
if (i > 0)
write(1, buffer, i);
}
