Kernel panic on new f7 installation

Hi,

I just installed f7 on a new box. When I tried to boot it after install I got
the following error:

MP-BIOS bug: 8254 Timer not connected to IO-APIC

Kernel Panic Not syncing: IO-APIC + Timer doesn't work! Try using the noapic
kernel parameter.

Passing nooapic to the kernel at boot lets the machine boot.

There are no BIOS updates available for the box.

Is this something I should put into bugzilla or is simply expected on some
machines?

FYI:

[root at tigger2 pts0 ~]# uname -r
2.6.21-1.3228.fc7
[root at tigger2 pts0 ~]#

The box is a Lenovo MTM7387-24U

I am not sure what other info would be useful, so please ask if someone feels
I should provide something else.
