Either a HX-based board such as the T2P4 from ASUS or one based on the VIA-2 chipset (I don't think it has the limitation of TX/VX). ---------------------------------------- With the ASUS T2P4 you have to make sure you buy a tag ram chip that the board doesn't come with. This chip is necessary to allow the board to cache more than 64meg. At least the one I got needed this. -Fred Gilham gilham@csl.sri.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
