Is does your CPU core run at 2100mhz be default for the AMD 2350? 
Also make sure and check with the MFG that there BIOS supports the AMD2350, 
from what I have seen on mine the chip runs really cool and my bios does not 
come up on the bios banner correctly (but Solaris was able to handle it both 
under 11u4 and snv_b72 and higher). I believe they just came out from AMD and 
has all the instruction extensions for XEN! 
If you do try it out, submit a RFE test on both the snv and 10u4 and collect 
ether a explorer report or prtconf -pv ; prtdiag -v ; /usr/X11/bin/scanpci and 
the /var/adm/messages file, note some of the devices will come up unknown on 
the scanpci -v command and you can note thet in the detail section.
