The odd thing here is that this should be a static table generated by the BIOS that should have the same contents every boot. The panic is claiming that one of the fields in the table is set to an invalid value. If it happened on every boot it could be a software bug (or a BIOS bug we need to workaround). If it only happens on certain boots it feels more like a memory error. :-/ -- John Baldwin
