[SunRescue] E450 with 200MHz CPUs?

[Les]

Happen to have a 450 manual here at my desk. It says nothing
about limiting speed to 250, but it does say that all 4 CPUs must match
speeds, all must be UltraSPARC II,  and to fill the processors from 4 to 1.

Strange, I thought that the slowest CPU you could find in an E450 was the
250MHz UltraSPARC-II. A quick search on the web resulted in nothing (not
even at Sun).
