        noapic          [SMP,APIC] Tells the kernel to not make use of any
                        IOAPICs that may be present in the system.


        apic=           [APIC,i386] Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller
                        Change the output verbosity whilst booting
                        Format: { quiet (default) | verbose | debug }
                        Change the amount of debugging information output
                        when initialising the APIC and IO-APIC components.

yum install kernel-doc
cd /usr/share/doc/kernel<tab>/<tab>
less kernel-par<tab>
