It is about a bug on a ASUS M6Ne laptop, which hard-locks if the lapic is used. Booting with nolapic fixes the crash. Janosh, does your M6Ne also crashes hard if the lapic is enabled? That information is not clear in the bug report. Anyway, looks like, at the very least, a blacklist entry for that machine would be in order. And that's supposing we are doing nothing wrong while setting up the lapic in it, as I know nothing about lapics. I don't trust Windows to be using the lapic at all, if you know how to verify that, you might want to do so and send that information to the bug report. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
