From /usr/src/UPDATING
Hyperthreading logical CPU's are no longer probed by default when
using the MP Table.
If ACPI is being used, then logical CPUs will be probed if
hyperthreading is enabled in the BIOS.
If ACPI is not being used and hyperthreading is enabled in the BIOS,
logical CPUs can be enabled
by building a custom kernel with the
option MPTABLE_FORCE_HTT enabled.
So "device apic" - will be enough (but also option MPTABLE_FORCE_HTT was
added in CUSTOM
kernel configuration).
But HTT enabled in bios and mainboard manual tells that bus with 800 FSB.
