I looked at V1 epia-m support and found there was a workaround:
	/* new Via Edens seem to need an early invalidate - before enabling 
	 * caches
	 */
	invd

When I put this code in auto.c (V2) before the early_mtrr_init():
	__asm__ volatile (" invd");

all the strange behaviour goes away, and booting is fast again.
