You tried SuSe 10.0 ? Try Gentoo's live Cd first then install it.
I think u must try latest distibution of any Linux flavour which
will be having support for the mother board you mentioned. May
be Mandriva 2006. Mandriva 2006 supports almost everything.

Or try Slackware too. There are many distro's. Slackware's latest
release is 10.2 May be that could help you. Next week i am going
to try Mandriva and Suse 10.0 on the same motherboard at my friends
computer.

well rajuraj,
ofcourse D101GCC is compitable with linux but it shows so many problems with older distributions. i had the same issue with redhat EL4 and fedora 4 but it run smoothly with debian and other debian based distros like ubuntu, xandros etc. may be new version of fedora or Redhat will solve this prob.
