i edit'd /usr/src/sys/i386/i386/mp_machdep.c , changing the apic loop to
start at x=2 (instead of x=1) since its (apparantly at x=1) where the
problem arises, and it boots up fine, saying that its SMP Motherboard in
dmesg (no errors)

the reason i say that x=1 is the bad apic is because of the panic msg in
the "regular" smp kernel which says:

"AP #1 (PHY #6) failed!"

i'm sure its not this simple, BUT, i'm wondering how to tell for sure if
you really ARE running in SMP or not

even tho the system is booted and running fine, i dont know how to verify
that it is INDEED running in SMP mode

thanks,
nathan
