Hi there! After I have read that the IO-APIC mode on the SIS645DX-Chipset is supported by kernel 2.5.7x, I get kernel-2.6.0-test1. It booted quite well, more to say really fast, and recognized my onboard components, such as network and USB correct. So at first: Thank you! Great work! But looking at dmesg I saw one time during booting "APIC Error on CPU0 00(40)" and afterwards several times "APIC Error on CPU0 40(40)". Can somebody tell me what this error means, or I can avoid it? I'm running Mandrake 9.1 with gcc-3.2.2. If more Information is needed, please tell me. At first I only attach the bootlog. Please CC me, cause I'm subscribed to the list. TIA, Rüdiger
