I've got P2b-DS boards here, which differ from the straight -D
in that they have the onboard SCSI controller.  Unfortunately,
the SCSI controller, a 7880 or some such, is not currently supported
by FreeBSD, at least in the current floppy boot.

However, there is a driver somewhere, and it was written for
FreeBSD.  I know this as someone here found it and added it
into a Linux kernel and go that going.  I just haven't had the
time to find it myself and work out how to get it into floopy
install disk.

But all the above is irrelevant if you have no onboard SCSI...
Otherwise, the Asus P2B-* looks good, it certainly seems to
run Linux as well as anything else.

PS: Latest Floppy install Current I tried was end of August,
but it may be supported by now.
