Hi,

Attached is the serial output and the configuration i used.

Thanks, now I have something to compare my .config with.

However,
there seems to be nothing in the log that would refer to any CPU
specifics.

Yes there is:

Root Device init
APIC_CLUSTER: 0 init
start_eip=0x0000c000, offset=0x00100000, code_size=0x0000005b
Initializing CPU #0
CPU: vendor Intel device f29
CPU: family 0f, model 02, stepping 09
POST: 0x60
Enabling cache
