Linux on Asus SK8N motherboard with AMD64 FX-51
 

Has anyone amage to run any flavour of Linux on a Asus SK8N motherboard? If so I would be interested to hear of any problems encountered. I would be especially inetrested in users of 64bit flavours of Linux running on these.

:Pengy:

yes sir i do
i have 9.2 mandrake 64 .. asus sk8n board the only problem i have right now is the net card isnt recognized .. well it sees it but cant configure it.. so i have to put my own nic in cuz i cant find any help on it... but other then that its 2 times faster then my 2.4 p4 runnning 9.2

Was this the beta version that Mandrake have on their site?

Does it differ much from Red HAt 9.0 with which I am familiar?

fedora has a 64 bit bersion tooo which is redhat but they dont have iso files for it ... im having trouble making one http://www.linuxtx.org/amd64faq.html this is the link to FC1 64 beta.....

yes mandrake is similar and easy to use...everything usually works like its sposed to just some of the control panels are a lil bit diff...
