The busratio is also correctly identified as the multiplier entered in the BIOS. Now I no longer need to manually set the FSB speed in my Boot.plist.
Ok, so I went another step further and made a check to see whether the processor is a Phenom or Shanghai processor and only double the FSB if it is. Intel should still be good to use my kernel (though I haven't tested it). I posted a new thread with my kernel as I don't want to hijack Andy's thread.
