First, which CPU do you have in your T61, Jon?

Next, I set up SMP using the ACPI wizard instead of doing it manually (as I 
did with my Proliant server).

I'm sure that line reads:

PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP /APIC

(not /ACPI)

Try changing to PIC from APIC (or just leave off /APIC).

Check that your ACPI.CFG is clean (default). You should find that either in 
\OS2\BOOT or %ETC% (can't recall right now).

Just some random thoughts off the top of my head.
