most boards are incompatible because intel chose a different pinout for
fcpga-ii cpus on purpose. a hardware modification (or an expensive
adapter) is needed to run a tualatin cpu on such boards. the cpu voltage
is one of the minor problems.
anyway, we should support all processors and their microcode updates.
the processor support in general needs some rework as most cpus are
completely unsupported. the generic functions are mostly useless and
only control general parameters (if anything at all).
