Bug Description
I tried the Ibex alpha 2 in an AMD Turion 64 X2 Dell Inspiron 1501 today. It errors out as follows:
[0.196000] .. MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC
[0.240000] PCI: Cannot allocate region 7 of bridge 0000:00:05.0
[0.240000] PCI: Cannot allocate region 8 of bridge 0000:00:05.0
When I try with the noapic nolapic options it still errors out and wont boot. The error in this case is:
[0.240000] PCI: Cannot allocate region 7 of bridge 0000:00:05.0
[0.240000] PCI: Cannot allocate region 8 of bridge 0000:00:05.0
This is a show stopper given that the laptop won't boot at all.

As per suggestion by Toma on #ubuntu+1 IRC channel I added 'nosmp' option and it seemed to load ( the Ubuntu boot splash loaded) but then I ended in the following prompt:
v1.1.3 (Debian 1:3-4ubuntu3) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
(initramfs)
