I've had it work on 2 IBM x86 boxes.
4/8-way SMP
1/4/16 GB RAM
no AGP
Intel Profusion Chipset and some funky IBM one

It failed on the NUMA-Q's I tried it on. I haven't investigated any
more thoroughly.

If you want more details, let me know. But, I've never seen your
"Calibrating delay loop..." problem. The last time I saw problems
there was when I broke the interrupt stack patches. But, since those
aren't in mainline, you shouldn't be seeing it.
