I want to put together an "EXTREMELY" fast system with a minimum of 2 - 2.6GHz + Xeons or Athlons and a U320 or U160 SCSI hard drive(s) and 2 Gig or more of memory. I need to know if there is a dual cpu motherboard that SuSE 8.2 Professional will run on of this calibre.
As far as I know Gigabyte provides linux drivers for their dual Athlon boards, although, as the chipset is a modified AMD 76x, which is well supported, my guess would be that it is natively supported anyway. I was thinking of getting one of these when they came out and got some good responses to my questions. You could check www.gigabyte.com.tw and go to the server menu. Somewhere in there is the server/workstation board menu and you can check them out. I don't know the other boards, especially not the Intels. But since there's only the AMD chipset for dual Athlons, which hasn't changed too much since it first came out, your chances are pretty good. Hans
