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