[Bug 202079] Kernel panic during install on K6 and K6-2 processors (VIA Apollo chipsets) 10.2 Alpha 3

I think it have something to do to SMP-based kernels (that are now default
ones)... - perhaps there is some small bug in the chipset/BIOS that tell to
Linux: "I am multiprocessor-capable system" and when Linux kernel uses the
opcodes for standard multiprocessor systems, the system dies, and the kernel
panics.
I can't prove that, but it is the feeling...
I can't prove, because I can't install the Linux system and then degrade the
kernel to uniprocessor one, but I can do the other way around, will try to use
older distro and install SMP kernel on one of the "buggy" systems.
