Title: Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work!
Post by: fpausp on March 10, 2014, 09:51:32 PM: Tried to install sme8.1 64bit as virtual machine under proxmox and got:

Code: [Select]
..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work! Try using the 'noapic' kernel parameter
If someone like to do this, It was possible with the kernel parameter:
sme noapic

Is there any Info about this ?

Is this a bug ?

No its not an SME8 bug, it installs fine on stand alone hardware

I would suggest its an issue with proxmox, although I have been able to install sme8 on a proxmox box, I didn't like it so went back to ESXi

ESXI 5.1 and 5.5
SME7.# - SME8.# and SME9.# have all been installed and used, currently with mainly sme9 beta testing etc.

Used to do a lot of testing etc in lead up to SME8.1 release.
