I got it installed without too many problems, but noticed that it's only running at 356MHz - from reading previous posts I gather it's because FreeBSD doesn't support the PMU, which needs programmed to take the CPU up to its full speed. Is anyone already working on this, or is it something I could take a look at to see what would need done to support it? -- Bruce Cran
