-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello all, I just got a box here, on which I'm running grml64 2010.4 off the cd so I can explore around, and I have a couple of questions which I hope someone could provide meaningful answers to: 1. When I look at dmesg, I see: [ 0.000000] Detected 2188.958 MHz processor. [ 0.003345] Calibrating delay loop (skipped), value calculated using timer frequency.. 4379.32 BogoMIPS (lpj=7296526) However, when I look at /proc/cpuinfo, I see this: processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 15 model : 39 model name : AMP Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3700+ stepping : 1 cpu MHz : 1000.000 cache size : 1024 KB fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt lm 3dnowext 3dnow up rep_good pni lahf_lm bogomips : 1990.87 TLB size : 1024 4K pages clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 40 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management: ts fid vid ttp tm stc Why is cpuinfo showing the cpu is 1GHz, when in fact it is a 2.2GHz processor? Something to do with power management? I assume that linux will still take full advantage of the processor, am I correct in assuming that? My second question is what is the easiest way to install debian Lenny 64-bit on this system without a serial port? I do have a usb to serial converter here, but that won't work with speakup as of now obviously. I know I can mess around with debootstrap under grml, but is there an easier way? Thanks in advance for any help.
