Dear Sirs.
For building a server system I would like to use the TYAN Tomcat n3400B 
motherboard (TYAN S2925G2NR).
As far as I know, this motherboard utilises the nVidia nForce 3400 
chipset which is similar, or even identical to the new nForce5XX 
chipsets introduced shortly.
The main question is: will FreeBSD 6.2/amd64 work with this board?

I need especially both NICs and the SATA-II RAID-0/Mirroring facilities.

Thank you very much for your comments.

Regards,
Oliver
