] dmesg says:
]
] cpu0 at mainbus0: TMS390Z50 v0 or TMS390Z55 @ 75 MHz, on-chip FPU
] cpu0: physical 20K instruction (64 b/l), 16K data (32 b/l), 1024K external (3

Yes, that is exactly what my dmesg says, the prom says something entirely
different on boot.
SMCC SPARCstation 10/20 UP/MP POST version VRV3.43 (01/09/95)
CPU_#0 TI, STP1021APGA(2.x) 1Mb External cache
CPU_#1 ******* NOT installed *******
CPU_#2 ******* NOT installed *******
CPU_#3 ******* NOT installed *******
>>>>> Power On Self Test (POST) is running .... <<<<<
SPARCstation 20 (1 X SuperSPARC-II), No Keyboard
ROM Rev. 2.22, 288 MB memory installed, Serial #7819401.
Ethernet address 8:0:20:77:50:89, Host ID: 72775089.
Note the CPU_#0, on the TMS390 module it shows up as such rather than STP1021.
The logic in the kernel that puts the string up is driven by a simple
table it appears. the @ 75 is probably the indication that its a II..
