Probable addition
8.8 I get a lot of 'spurious interrupts detected' messages on a modified 
i386 build kernel and my computer does not work right. What did I do wrong?

You have a single processor computer, build your own customized kernel 
and disabled
options SMP (multiprocessor).
Probably you also disabled the line below,
device          apic                    # I/O APIC

This is code for the advanced programmable interrupt controller which 
also controls interrupts for your attached devices, being ethernet cards 
and others.
Do not disable this device.
