set timer frequency.

[C Wakefield <c_wakefield@shaw.ca>]

Greetings all.

I'm trying to increase my kernel timer frequency from the default of 250 htz 
to 1000 htz.
Currently I'm not able the boot a self-compiled kernel due to motherboard 
issues, so I need to work with the kernel I'm running:  
2.6.20~rc6-1~experimental.1~snapshot.8221

Is there a boot time kernel parameter to do this?

Thanks,
Chris W.
