These crashes are very similar to what I experienced installing the 9.04
LiveCD version of Ubuntu (or Xubuntu) on an Intel i440BX based Compaq
Armada E500 laptop (please see #399589). I do remember getting the error
message about IO-APIC resourse allocation failing on the one or two
occasions where the screen didn't simply freeze showing the install
progress bar.
>From what I can tell, nothing after 8.10 will install on this & quite a
few other Armada models - the most recent BIOS being dated 2002 in the
case of the E500.

Hope this helps. Please contact me if I can be of any further
assistance, as I've got quite a few of these trusty old warriors!
