I tried adding that and the kernel recognises that I've tried the option
but ACPI still won't start up (I even recompiled the kernel and added
the processor section under ACPI just in case some code was left out but
I get the same results). This is what dmesg shows everytime:

So I currently don't know what RSDP is, though I'm hunting around for
the definition.

Any other ideas? Why is this harder than it should be? This processor
does actually do HT but I've been unable to manage it :)

Help!
