What motherbaord do you have?

if it's an ECS K7VMM it's normal that the noapic option doesn't work
for this mobo, there is no way to boot with the noapic option, nor to disable
the APIC in the BIOS
if it's another one, try to disable the APIC in your BIOS

BTW, i still think that there's something wrong with your kernel configuration
are you completely sure you have disabled the APIC in the kernel config?
(the setting is in "processor type and features --> Local apic suppurt on
uniprocessors")
