    Well, I've come to the conclusion that the APMBIOS support on my K8V
    motherboard is broken.  I've literally traced the instructions one by
    one and it ends up trying to do a movb $0,%cs:0x128c as part of an
    otherwise perfectly legitimate instruction stream.  Needless to say,
    the above is quite illegal.

    So for AMD64, at least with the K8V motherboard (unless a newer BIOS rev
    fixes this prolem), people will have to not specify the APMBIOS option
    for their kernels.
