thats too weird. i have 2 AMD 1.4s here with A7M266s. they run redhat 7.x fine. haven't tried debian(they aren't my machines) you can save a lot of headaches possibly by not using the onboard IDE controllers of these newer boards. All of my new systems use Promise ATA/100 controller cards. debian works with them fine provided you use the ide boot disk. a lot of troubles in the past have been due to chipsets(most of the time dealing with IDE drives) the 2 AMDs that i have at this office use the promise card, as does my desktop P3. as does my athlon at home and my P3 at home. all of my systems run 2.2.19. i would NOT use the raid editions of these cards, just the standard ones. nate
