The system I've tried to install it upon is a Parallels virtual machine
which is running under Windows on a dual Athlon system. At present
Parallels only supports a single processor and that is what was seen on
alpha2, the last alpha that would install on a Parallels VM.

I would have, but it's already been added to an open bug about the
problem of it failing to install on a Parallels VM: #202605

It doesn't matter which boot options are chosen, I still get the kernel
panic.

OTOH, installing on real hardware[0] seems to work just fine.
