My understanding is that the Celeron 533 should work fine with the BP6.
If, however, you mix your 500 Mhz and 533 Mhz CPU, you'll have some weird
timing problems. We are resolving this and I can send you a preliminary patch
to deal with this if you wish.
No guarantees, of course. Particularly, if the stepping of the CPUs are
different, you may have problems.
