There is no accelerator, it is just 180 MHz straight.

Here are some lines from the log:

The session save/restore feature is disabled
OF device tree: oftrees/oftree.nw
DEC frequency: 11 MHz, 112:10 mticks/usec
96MB RAM mapped at 0x40000000
Running in PowerPC G3 mode
Property 'cpu/bus-frequency' is missing!
Could not open /proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes
Using Linux keycodes
Using nvram-image '/var/lib/mol/nvram.nw'

This is with Mac OS 9.1 and NewWorld booting...
