I've got a problem with a VIA C3 (1GHz)-system: the system freezes immediately when the CPU frequency goes under 731MHz because of an incompatibility with the (not completely implemented) i686 commands and a powersave feature of the kernel.
There is a workaround: deactivate the "longhaul" kernelmodule via alias longhaul off
in /etc/modprobe.d/aliases
.
But the system freezes before I can install any Linux distribution - even Clonezilla freezes.
Is there a possibility to deactivate the module with a GRUB boot parameter before the kernel is loaded?
