I doubt that i7 chips in general are the problem, since I find various
reports on Google of OI/Solaris/Illumos running on some kind of i7
processor.

But there are many different kinds. This is the one on the machine that
got us the kernel panic:

http://ark.intel.com/products/53469/Intel-Core-i7-2670QM-Processor-%286M-Cache-2_20-GHz%29

Very new (launched in Q4 2011), and we're guessing that there's
something there that OI and/or Illumos are not ready for, but I don't
know how to investigate it further.


Best,
Geoff
