We also ran into this problem yesterday when setting up an old system as
our new firewall.

It turned out that disabling the APIC table (MSP table) in the BIOS
helps, but only at first boot. Once the kernel itself has set up the
tables, after a reboot, it will be stuck again and the machine must be
power-cycled.
