Description: I've been running this Epox board for more than a year now, and it runs very nicely. The only drawback is that I have to use the ForcedEth drivers in order to get onboard lan to work. Onboard sound works great, just had to use the snd-intel8x0 driver in alsa.

Great board. Although, unfortunately, it lacks SATA support.
Keywords: nvidia nforce2 epox 8rda+
Chipset: Nvidia Nforce2 400
Connection Type: Socket A, Firewire, USB, etc.

All works great apart from the firewire.

My efforts on the Linux 1394 firewire mailing list drew us to the conclusion that it will never work on Linux :(
