I got it running here. tested the last svn rev today. i got so much happy
I installed debian and got both cpu to full load. a while after I looked
and my box was frozen :(

so now on small steps. I have now two cpu and VT-x enabled. it looks good
so far. but I know when I fire folding at home, using both cpu is no good
anymore.
I'll let it this way for a while to see if it freezes, and then will try
one cpu and full load.

this is work, so I'll try to reproduce this at home, using 8-beta and post
here.

thanks,
