You have a single processor computer, build your own customized kernel
and disabled
options SMP (multiprocessor).
Probably you also disabled the line below,
device apic # I/O APIC
This is code for the advanced programmable interrupt controller which
also controls interrupts for your attached devices, being ethernet cards
and others.
Do not disable this device.
While I don't know about apic, there used to be "KEEP THIS!!!" comments in
GENERIC's conf file.
I guess this would be more on the spot than a FAQ you'd read *after*
removing this.
Just my 2c.

av.
You're probably right. It must have been before 6.3-RELEASE, where there are
no KEEP THIS comments in GENERIC.
Though in NOTES it says "Mandatory".
It is a very stupid user error on my side, which I stumbled upon quite a
time ago and maybe not even FAQ worthy then.
