I have installed red hat 7.3 with kernel version 2.4.18 on an AMD Duron 1100 with a ASUS A7V133-C Motherboard, 32MB TNT2 and a 20 GIG Maxtor Viper HD. Whenever the machine boots up, the following error appears : spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7 I have read through quite a few mailing lists and other sources but can't find an adequate solution. One solution I found was to turn off Local APIC support and IO-APIC support in the kernel, which I tried and it worked, but I'd rather not do this. I realise the error isn't of a huge concern but it's still annoying having it appear everytime the machine boots up. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
