Thanks for the bisect, Ben.

Please test the patch below.

I assume even without the patch, booting with "acpi=off" on your
BIOS-ACPI-disabled box works?  (if no, this patch will not solve
all your problems, for you have additional trouble elsewhere)

I am curious why you're running a CONFIG_ACPI=y kernel
for a box with ACPI disabled. (though yes, it is supposed to work)

I'm even more curious what bad things happen when
you enable ACPI in the BIOS -- can you let me know
and we can try to fix them so the machine can run as shipped?

thanks,
