It is a Shuttle FS50 with single processor.  I am already booting it with
"noapic".  It is running a SMP kernel for other reasons...

This makes it work, but it is not a solution for me.  The card is going to
be installed in an embedded system where the user will not be able to issue
commands.  Thus, it needs to work automatically.
