well I have run through this a bunch of times now, but basically always vanilla/defaults, with the only variations being the generic "safe install and no acpi settings" as well as different software choices.
The only one that I would be concerened about is where it wrote the grub boot loader, and also if the bios is set for this drive to be bootable.
the system board is an Intel Desktop Board D101GGC -- the manual does not really say what the controller is, beyond that it is "serial ATA".
It's a new board, I guess I would be shocked if it does not support linux.
