Hi Jason,
That is interesting. Just so we're 100% clear: your hard-lockup is still related to APIC bios/kernel options, right? So you can avoid the lockups like me by using the "nolapic_timer" kernel command-line option or by disabling APIC?

Does your laptop use some sort of CPU frequency scaling when in battery mode to power save? I find it surprising that the hard disk should have anything to do with it.

Cheers,
Randall
