Re: [coreboot] IOAPIC Initialisation - How much do you have to do ??

[Harrison, Jon (SELEX GALILEO, UK)]

Sooo. I've added MPtables and masked IRQ0 from boot but still get

APIC error on CPU0:  40(40)
""
""
""
""

Which seems to mean "illegal vector recieved"

Any suggestions on how to track down what the interrupt source is of the
illegal vector ?

Is there a kernel command line option that will turn on more verbose
APIC output ?

Thanks,
Jon
