I myself just installed FreeBSD on a machine running the same CPU, and FreeBSD identified it as Pentium Pro class processor. I first tried setting Cpu to 486-type too, as Windows does infact recognize it as a 486.

My installation went flawlessly, apart from the above mentioned problem. I have the 2,5x66 version of the CPU btw, running off an Asus TX97-E MB. And running 2.2.2 as well. > Please CC answer to my email.
