Yes, curses on them, where's my voodoo doll :-). Unfortunately, I have no clue what the cache-invalidate-after-A20-gate is and I don't have a thinkpad, I was just relaying concerns I've heard before. If someone understands what Bruce is talking about, and has a thinkpad that can be tested, could you try this and send some step by step notes. Maybe we can make a section in the installation notes describing this.
