I have one of these boards running suse 10 ( and suse 9.3 at one point).
I have not met any problems with it at all. Suse 9.3/10 installs without a hitch.
I have added the following to this board with all devices found/configured on install.
6 hard drives ( 2 x sata 4x ide) 2 dvd writers (nec 3500 and pioneer 107d) nvidia fx 5900 compro videomate dvb t-200 tv card soundblaster live 5.1 q-tec (sil680) ide raid card USB pci card USB bluetooth adapter
All onboard devices (ide, sata controllers, wireless ethernet) were picked up and configured buy suse 9.3/10 with no issues.
My bios is revision 1008
Not sure why your having such a hard time with this board.
send be me your bios settings and i'll compare with my mine and check for any differences.

Well, I'm actually happier now. Uptime of almost 2 days! 1. BIOS 1008 is clearly a winner. I suppose I could retry 1009 but that sounds painful, and they claim the upgrade is mainly support for dual-code processors. 2. I now run the default BIOS settings except A. SATA IDE instead of RAID B. Boot priority CD then HD, moving USB devices down C. Video priority PCX rather than PCI (I have two cards) (Actually this one works either way). By the way, I experimented with the Coo'n'Quiet and the PlugandPlayAwareOS settings. Turning either on makes the system unstable. Go figure.
