I'm using v0.99 (latest available). Also note when I do enable the mysterios "MFGPT workaround" option in the bios the machine hangs directly after: [ 36.780990] NET: Registered protocol family 16 > > > Also, could you provide a log with the following (untested) patch?

The relevant part would be: [ 23.092507] NET: Registered protocol family 16 [ 23.105875] geode-mfgpt: 8 MFGPT timers available [ 23.120247] geode-mfgpt: Registered timer 0 [ 23.133076] mfgpt-timer: registering the MFGT timer as a clock event.
