2.21.12

determining some early configuration for io apic requires either mp tables or ACPI. Talked to Matt and he recommended MP tables.

decided to go with ACPI, its got features we may use later anyhow. Looking specifically at ACPICA.

2.22.12

ACPICA is kind of a mess. I am trying now to just take the components directory and it looks like I only have to modify: acenv.h to include acebbos.h which will configure stuff (I'll base this off of aclinux.h).

Then it should compile, to link will require all the OS dependent code. I'll base that off the unix_xf.c os specific layer. Stub it all out as best I can and see what happens.
