Novell OPEN ENTERPRISE SERVER 2 SP2 Installation Manual page 45

Installation—ACPI Disabled: If the normal installation fails, this might be because of
the system hardware not supporting ACPI (advanced configuration and power interface).
If this seems to be the case, use this option to install without ACPI support.
Installation—Local APIC Disabled: If the normal installation fails, this might be
because of the system hardware not supporting local APIC (advanced programmable
interrupt controllers). If this seems to be the case, use this option to install without local
APIC support.
If you are not sure, try Installation—ACPI Disabled or Installation—Safe Settings first.
Installation—Safe Settings: Boots the system with the DMA mode (for CD-ROM
