the TLB stuff, if it's of interest...

this is strange, too. It's a 133MHz CPU as kernel 2.4.x correctly
recognizes.

For the R4000 there are two other things I could try: console on newport
instead of serial port and a 32-bit kernel, which I only tried on the
R4600.
I'll also try the said patch (you're referring to "blast_scache nop ...", do
you?).
