AMD Athlon CPU support

From Haiku Max Wiki

The Athlon CPUs start SSE differently than Pentium CPUs causing BeOS to reboot when the kernel is not patched. To patch the Kernel to run on Athlons you have to edit the kernel with a hex editor and replace the second instance of the string GenuineINTEL with AuthenticAMD. Note that the string must be absolutely identical, case does matter, otherwise it will not work.
