I get the following error and kernel panic on my pc98 at the boot time.

MCA: Bank 2, Status 0xb600000000140000
MCA: Global Cap 0x0000000000000005, Status 0x0000000000000004
MCA: Vendor "GenuineIntel", ID 0x616, APIC ID 0
MCA: CPU 0 UNCOR PCC no error
MCA: Address 0x3446ff003446ff

When I disable MCA with hw.mca.enabled=0 on loader prompt, the machine
works fine.  Does it mean my pc98 is broken?  Or other isssue?

It's spec is:
