In the time since (after turning freq scaling back on, and
occasionally before), I've seen the "Fast TSC calibration failed"
error during boot. This error locks up the machine and it doesn't
make it to the login screen.
Most of the google results from this error call it harmless. Does it
sound like this error relates to my hardware (rather than SL7?)
My Dell Precision M6500 throws the Fast TSC Calibration error every
three or four boots; it doesn't lock it up (in fact, it threw the error
when I booted it today, and it's still running several hours later).
Are you booting up with full kernel logging enabled rather than being in
quiet mode.
