no_timer_check Don't check the IO-APIC timer. This can work around
problems with incorrect timer initialization on some boards.
+ apicmaintimer Run time keeping from the local APIC timer instead
+ of using the PIT/HPET interrupt for this. This is useful
+ when the PIT/HPET interrupts are unreliable.

+ noapicmaintimer Don't do time keeping using the APIC timer.
+ Useful when this option was auto selected, but doesn't work.
