Is there any way to bump up my AMD64 proc speed from the live cd? Compiling takes entirely too long at 800Mhz.

So I guess no one has any clue? It took my AMD64 3700+ 3.5 hours to compile the bootstrap, that's not including the download time. Does anyone know if it is possible to change the processor speed while booted off a live cd? 800MHz just isn't cutting it.

Can you disable PowerNow or whatever it's called in the BIOS? That could probably solve your issue.

Nope, can't disable it. Ussually disabling the Power Now or Speedstepping defaults the proc to the lowest setting anyway. I know my Dell does that.www.msn.com
