Celeron D 347 (Cedar Mill)
|
Used JaS 10.4.8 SSE2 SSE3 reseed w/Semtex 8.8.1, it worked right away but I set the -y flag for 133MHz bus and it seems to boot faster. It will try to sleep but reboots when I try to wake it, so I set to no sleep. CPU overclocks to 3.43GHz only 48C!

Works absolutely flawlessly. JaS 10.4.6 -> Apple's 10.4.8, using Semthex 8.8.1 kernel. Everything works perfectly, it even goes to sleep! (Sadly this doesn't control the fans or the lights on my case, so there's no real point. It's still cool!
