> Has anyone run into and solved this install problem? It's a Toshiba Satellite A215. The install (and the machine) hangs with the messaqe "ACPI: Using IOAPIC for interrupt routing." The chip set on my laptop uses the AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core TL56 chip set. We upgraded the BIOS to its current version (1.40) but the result was identical. (There's almost nothing in this particular BIOS that can be modified.) This machine belongs to a student of mine.

Try passing this kernel option...
APIC=noirq
