The listing in the picture looks OK. I think what happens before it might
be interesting (cpu lines and ioapic line) FWIW the corresponding end
of your listing for me is:
npx0 at acpi0 (PNP0C04)
npx0: io 0xf0-0xff irq 13
npx0: reported by CPUID; using exception 16 <--- you don't get here
I wonder how a kernel with
options MULTIPROCESSOR
ioapic* at mainbus?
but no MPBIOS would fare... (Let acpi do the cpu finding)
