Re: [Xen-users] ACPI in unstable

[Ian MacDonald <imac@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jason,

I have seen this behaviour as well;  I though it had to do with
disabling the APIC, rather than APCI. To boot without apci, you can just
specify noapci on the kernel command line.

I'll verify locally a little later on with a noacpi boot. 

cheers,
Ian.
