I have done some tests booting the 2.6.9 kernel @ FC2 in runlevel 3
(as starting with 5 leads to system freezing), and, different from
what i got under FC3, I am actually able to get the system up and
running:

- With Cool & Quiet DISABLED in bios:

powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon 64 / Opteron processors (version 1.00.09b)
powernow-k8: BIOS error - no PSB

- With Cool & Quiet ENABLED in bios:

powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon 64 / Opteron processors (version 1.00.09b)

Should I let the kernel developers know about this?
