I am really surprised that this Sempron notebook actually had 64Bit
CPU compatibility :D
This one helps for my Turion.
AFAIK, another Turion (very similar) does not need this, but I do not
know for sure.
Is the common denominator here the Turion (and if so, what model
number), or is it the mainboard or BIOS? If the latter, it should be
keyed on a DMI signature instead of the CPU.

I have all the grief on a Sempron/ATI system
model name : Mobile AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3600+
If I specify nolapic,noapic or acpi=noirq on kernel boot, the machine
goes in to VERY slow motion (5 minutes to boot!) the noapictimer
option was the magic keyword in my case and I am going to dig in to the
code to see what things this setting fudges with :-)
Best Regards
