Wrong CPU frequency after reboot

[[LoN]Kamikaze]

Are you using powerd? It seems that your CPU was throttled before the
reboot, because of low load and when rebooting got stuck there. Try to
deactivate powerd and see weather this still occurs. If so, you can put
something into rc.shutdown that stops powerd and sets your cpu back to
full speed.
