Hello I would like to say first how when installing any linux with

...

bios access support enabled the system reboots on me.

Are you using a pentium? Do you have a special chipset? Have you

CPU=AMD K6 200 MHz w/mmx Motherboard=M5ATA,Pentium SuperTX cards=awe64(isa) Modem(isa jumperless) Pci=voodoo2 card , s3Trio64V2(dx/gx) harddrives=EIDE 1 maxtor 1 western digital thats aboutit. pci tried changing your bios settings to failsafe?

Have you looked to see if there't a bug fix for your bios? Have you

tried compiling a kernel on a differant machine and porting it to you machine?

...

So secondly i would like to say i'm concidering buying a new

...

i found one for my amd K6 200 MHz by a brand "Gigabyte" I would like to know if this motherboard is compatiable or I would be wasting my money.

I used to have a gigabyte motherboard (486DX266 with PCI bus). I

motherboard personally feel gigabyte bioses are well supported. I bought another because I couldn't get a bios upgrade to support EIDE (off board, and I didn't want to by a controller card. It would have costed the same as a Pentium 133 and board).

I think they're cheap, and I probably won't buy another.
