I try to boot with the nosmp option to test this and 2.6.20-16-generic
just hangs shortly into the boot (no output on any of the virtual
screens).  Any ideas on how to work around?  I don't really see nosmp as
a viable solution, but am willing to at least validate it as an option
for some.  If this is indeed a problem with nforce motherboards, I think
it probably needs to get more attention and documentation - as I
certainly was never aware of it and sort of just considered that the
boards were so plentiful they can't be bad.

FWIW, I do notice that Asus uses Broadcom LAN rather than Nvidia's on
their AMD server boards that otherwise use the rest of nforce.  I wonder
if this is why?  Miravlix, do you have any links to threads where this
has been discussed in public forum before or is it just your personal
findings?
