I'm looking to put together an amd64 box (initially to run i386)
for a remote office. Normally Id go with an Asus A8V deluxe, but
unfortunately this remote office is in Capetown, and I need to
go with what the local suppliers will provide, which turns out to
be MSI nforce based boards, specifically either of:
K8N Neo4 Platinum - nForce4 Ultra Chipset
http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=K8N_Neo4_Platinum&class=mb
or
K8N Neo2 Platinum - nForce3 Ultra Chipset
http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=K8N_Neo2_Platinum&class=mb
Have anyone run either of these boards under NetBSD, and
specifically does the SATA and ethernet work? Audio, USB,
and firewire are irrelevant to me.
Thanks!
