Greetings,=20

I have installed FreeBSD (3.2 Release) on a Micron P90, which has been =
upgraded to 180MHZ with a Pentium OverDrive Processer with MMX.  This =
system previously was running Windows 98 with no problems.=20

After installing FreeBSD, noticed that the system clock is running fast =
(~ +45 s every 5 min) .  When booting Timecounter "i8254" reports =
1193182 Hz and Timecounter "TSC" reports 156956333 Hz.  I think that TSC =
should be 180 Mhz or so.=20

How do I get this system to run on time?  It ran fine under Windows 98!  =
Considering hacking the code for calculating TSC to report 180MHz.  =
Where should I look?

Thanks,

Jeff Kyser
