Are you shure - FreeBSD says 21066 in every case.
You have to take care on the minor family number:
CPU: LCA Family major=4 minor=2
Mine qualifies as minor=2 - which is an 21066 Pass 2
An 21066A should say minor=5 here.

I don't know where to get one - otherwise I would already have
replaced mine :)
Especialy as I have a second NoName board with a broken CPU.
