I'll admit that I've never had to resort to "acpi=off", but my 
multi-core system all boot with a dmesg that says

   Using ACPI (MADT) for SMP configuration information

In particular, your system reported

> SMP: Allowing 0 CPUs, 0 hotplug CPUs

That doesn't look right. It should report that it allows multiple 
CPUs.

Can you boot this system without turning off acpi?
