The board looks ok to me , but I found that it contains marvell's 88SE6101 PATA controller , and I need to use PATA. I also noticed that 2.6.20 adds experimentally support for that chip. But driver says that it enables it via 'legacy mode' I will be glad to hear whenever full support is planned or not. And as last thing I want to ask you whenever current support is usable, that is can I use DMA , can I use DVD as at least reader for CD/DVD , and even better can I burn disks with it ( although I can live without it) Your truly, Maxim Levitsky Maxim Levitsky ____________________________________________________________________________________ Don't get soaked.
