I tested both versions and both work without any kernel panics :) So setting only the CONFIG_X86_X2APIC=y is enough to be able to boot with the X2APIC BIOS setting enabled. Thank you very much for all your efforts!
https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/X86_X2APIC.html It states it depends on CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC && CONFIG_X86_64 && ( CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP || CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST ) I always use the kernel provided with proxmox VE and those kernels have the following options set: CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC=y CONFIG_X86_64=y CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST=y CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP=y CONFIG_X86_X2APIC=y These kernels boot without problems on systems without X2APIC set in the BIOS.
Thanks for your input Michael, i will try your suggestions and will report back the findings! btw, i used v0.59 with the default selected kernel to boot into G4L

Hi, I have X2APIC enabled on most of my servers because of passthrough for VM's, but when this is enabled in the BIOS G4L boots into a kernel panic. I hope this can be fixed so i don't need to change this setting everytime i want to use G4L on one of those servers. Thank you very much in advance and regardless i will still be using this awesome piece of software. Kind regards, Caspar
