Hello,
I am putting together a box to run, in dual boot mode, both LINUX and
FreeBSD on their own dedicated & independent hard drives. At least that
is my desire.
The architecture is
Shuttle AI61 Motherboard - Standard ATX form factor motherboard
AMD Athlon 900MHz Processor Slot A
3 - DIMM Slots for Memory w/ 512 Mb
5 - PCI Slots
0 - ISA Slot
1 - AGP Slot
1 - PS/2 for mouse, 1 - PS/2 for keyboard
UltraDMA-66 EIDE Controllers.
AMD 751 & 756 Chipset
1 - Parallel port
2 - Serial ports
2 - Maxtor 40 Gb drives
300 W power supply - Mid tower Box
Creative Labs 128-Voice PCI Sound Card
Other features to be negotiated.
Box to be networked w/ another, using Linksys 10BaseT hub & network
cards.
Does anyone have any insight if there might be any problems running
FreeBSD w/ this config.
Thanks.
