For example, if your kernel boot line is:
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-348.6.1.el5 ro root=/dev/main/root
change it to:
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-348.6.1.el5 ro root=/dev/main/root divider=10 clocksource=acpi_pm
{{Tip box|if you subsequently update SME Server '''Guest''' to use a newer kernel, you may need to change your kernel boot line to reflect the update.}}
