Distribution: arch


everything on it works just fine :)

Just make sure that in your kernel everything related to nforce2 is compiled in (eg SATA,AGP,IDE)

Sata works great as well.
If you want to boot from Sata remember to switch on the SATA boot ROM in the BIOS setup

Modules
network forcedeth
sound snd_intel_8x0,snd_pcm_oss

Works flawlessly on Ubuntu Dapper 6.06, SATA, Sound, Network.
Only issue is that you won't get temperature readings from the uguru chip since lm-sensors doesn't support it.
There are workarounds for this on the official US ABit forums.
