2.6GHz Celeron on a Foxconn motherboard.  Foxconn documentation is 
pathetic.  The entire section on the BIOS consists of:

    After you finish the setting of jumpers and connect correct cables, 
power on the system and press <del> during POST (Power On Self Test) to 
enter the BIOS Setup Utility.  choose "Load Optimized Defaults" for 
recommended optimal performance.  Please make sure your system 
components are good enough for optimized defaults.

Whooppeeeee


In looking for multipliers, etc. I found the following under "Integrated 
Peripherals":
    IDECH0 Access Interface   [EDB Bus]
    IDECH1 Access Interface   [EDB Bus]
    (more lines for USB, network, sound)
The options are 'EDB Bus' (whatever that is) and 'PCI Bus'.
I changed all to PCI, and FC4 installed without any problems.

I have not tried another install so I do not know if my success was 
chance or not.
