When I boot an MP kernel it goes into some kind of apparent loop. Xperfmon++-3.1 reports > 200,000 chars/sec on tty out and 0% idle time. Top also reports 0.0% idle but no processes are running. When I first boot the system things seem okay. Running any kind of load (like building a kernel) though, will cause this looping behavior. A UP kernel does not have this problem. The motherboard is an ASUS GX-DLS. Any ideas on what might be wrong or what I can do to further track this down would be greatly welcomed.
