ChangeSet 1.1599, 2005/05/30 22:15:54+01:00, kaf24@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx By default do not enable local APIC if disabled by the BIOS. This matches Linux behaviour and ought to improve stability on buggy hardware/firmware (laptops in particular). As in Linux, you can forcibly enable the APIC with 'lapic' command-line option, or forcibly ignore it with 'nolapic'.
