Hello Scott, thank you for your fast reply!
Your provided solution works fine to fix the MTRR problem on my board! Just FYI, my CPU is the following: model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+ I'm just thinking if your suggested place for changing the KConfig is the right one, as the other boards did that config in the socket directory. And I guess that the model_fxx directory is used in several sockets. Therefor I think it would be better to add that config value in "cpu/amd/socket_AM2" so that other sockets don't get affected with this change.
