hi help desk,

it seems that our doc should mention, somehow, that we require APIC
ACPI support being enabled in the BIOS:

>> A user reports the following workaround: "turned on "Enable I/O APIC" in
> virtualbox's motherboard settings; now it starts and seems fine."

> so I checked my BIOS settings and found out that APIC ACPI support was
> turned off. When I re-enabled it, both Tails 2.7 and 3.0a1 boots fine
> again, and my 2.6 usb stick got also upgraded successfully and boots 2.7
> now.

> It also fixed my graphic card issue (got no more than 4 fps in Gnome), the
> graphics, gui effects and animations are now smooth again, as in 2.4.

> I'd suggest this info to be added to the required BIOS settings
> documentation.

> Cheers,
> Iben
