I've been unable to boot 2.1.123 or 2.1.124pre1 unless I use the 2.1.122 version
of arch/i386/kernel/io_apic.c and there have been several other reports of this
type of problem on linux-kernel.
I now have some additional information.
Under 2.1.122, I see the following during boot:
ENABLING IO-APIC IRQs

IO-APIC pin 0broken BIOS, changing pin 10 to edge
broken BIOS, changing pin 11 to edge
broken BIOS, changing pin 15 to edge
not connected.

number of IO-APIC registers: 16.

In particular, notice that irqs 10,11 and 15 are reported with broken bios.
These irqs correspond to my three PCI cards:

With 2.1.123, I do not see the broken BIOS messages but the IRQ redirection
table looks as follows (hope this is correct as it flys by rather quickly):

Since irq 10 is disabled (mask = 1), the aic7880 repeatedly times out during
unit detection.
I've discovered that the following patch will cause 2.1.124pre1 to work like
2.1.122:
--- linux/arch/i386/kernel/orig.io_apic.c Wed Sep 30 15:01:38 1998
+++ linux/arch/i386/kernel/io_apic.c Wed Sep 30 15:02:06 1998

{
case MP_BUS_ISA: /* ISA pin */
{
- polarity = default_ISA_polarity(idx);
+ polarity = 0;
break;
}

Again, the hardware is:
HP Vectra XU 6/150 (dual ppro 150, KX chipset)
Hope this helps...
