Hi Grub2 Development team,
I've worked with a colleague to successfully implement ICHxM SMBUS PLL
overclocking using grub2 as described here:
http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?p=5569693
This is great as it means an overclocked CPU state from the bootloader,
providing a somewhat unive

(Note: requires previous binutils-20080624-2 due to a regression in ld
from binutils-2.19.51-1)

of the GPLv3 license, and wasn't aware that it became the licensing scheme

For example Nando does it sa

If you Colin commit it don't propagate my mistake.

parameters to kernels; so we should provide some scheme to
