Asus P2B-D w/256Meg ECC RAM and mirrored IDE via ccd. The compiling of the kernel went without problems. It might be nice to have a file re-enforcing the number of APIC's, BUSES, IRQ for the common motherboards. I was also slightly surprized when my vga, both NICs showed up on IRQs 16, 18 & 19 respectively, wasn't expecting that. I have APM disabled in the BIOS and not in the kernel. I needed to add "KLUDGE_RTC_BROKEN" to make top work. The source code is kept current via CTM. It is the code from about June 8 (or about). I have watched to ctm's and haven't seen chagnes in the code I haven't applied. PS. It is a nice MB, thanks to all for the input a couple of weeks ago when I asked. Jim -- James E.
