Problem Description: kernal panic – not syncing: I0-apic + timer doesn’t work! boot with apic=debug and send a report. then try booting with the ‘noapic’ option
Solution: When booting, press downkey to free the Grub interface, press “e” to modify the bootline, and at the end of the line that begins with “kernel”, add in, without quotes, “noapic”, then save the file and reboot.
