Hi!

I've tried it with 3 different a7n8x(-x) boards and -current: Adding

  ioapic* at mainbus?
  options        MPACPI

to a kernels config to use the mainboards apic causes the following
panic:

== Missing apic support for this chip set?

My config stupidity?

How to get apic support for these maiboards?

Any hint appreciated,

Markus.
