Asus CUV4X-D, 2.4.3 crashes at boot

Boot with "nmi_watchdog=0" as a boot parameter. Does it work now?
Some people have reported before here that the IO-APIC driven NMI watchdog itself can cause boot-time hangs.

Thanks, but I do not have watchdog support compiled into the kernel.

Doesn't matter. The NMI-watchdog tries to detect SMP-lockups, and is always present. Unless you specifically disable it on boot.

Not any more. In 2.4.3-ac* the default is no watchdog and it must be specifically enabled at boot.

nmi_watchdog 0 didn't help - the above would explain why.
Any more ideas? My expensive server is basically useless because of this. :(
