Observe that APIC is not disabled. Add hint.apic.0.disabled="1" to loader.conf and reboot. APIC *is* disabled. >Fix: Change the parsing for hint.apic.0.disabled or loader.conf in general; if this can't be fixed, then at least document the valid values for truth in loader.conf(5). >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
