[coreboot] Re: Regarding Intel CPU frequency.

HI Paul,

I have tried different measures to increase the load on CPU, but still the frequency reflects the same value ie. 800Mz.

My question is why this behavior is different w.r.t the one when system boots up with BIOS.
When I boot with BIOS, I can see that frequency output stays at 2200Mhz.

Do I need to enable some settings under the coreboot code related to turbo frequency e.t.c ?
