The PC the SRM console gave you when you halted the machine shows the machine is in the middle of dispatching an interrupt. So it looks like simply not EOI'ing an interrupt source is not enough to prevent further interrupts from that same source on lynx (like it is on sable). So the new kernel will disable an interrupt source at the chipset level when it comes in. Maybe this will work. You'll see 100 interupts worth of "enabling irq #" and "disabling irq #" If it doesn't work, please ask the SRM console what the RA is when you halt the machine (">>>e ra" should do it). You needn't bother with a verbose boot; none of my debugging info is hidden behind bootverbose. Thanks!
