I confirm the same issue when installing from the Gutsy 7.10 Server Edition CD on a VIA EPIA-M10000 (should be same cpu/chipset of the EK10000G).
The install goes fine but at the first reboot I get the "cpu too old" message. The kernel image is linux-image-2.6.22-14-server. I booted from a livecd, chroot in the install, installed linux- image-2.6.22-14-generic. Booting with that kernel works without problems, so the issue really is with the -server kernel image, not with the 2.6.22 sources. Don't know if it could be related, but a similar problem exists with 6.06.1 LTS, the 'server' kernel won't boot (this time without any message, it just freeze) and the 686 kernel works.
