You need to use the latest firmware for the board. I think it is the F3 version. The original version was apparently very buggy.
After I upgraded the firmware I found the BIOS to be ok. The J1900's boards performance and hardware is pretty impressive. I would not waste much time trying to get that to run on 10.04. Everything I read says that even Ubtuntu 12.04 was too old for it. Here is a long discussion on the Baytrail boards. http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=184930 The Gigabyte J1900 I have is powered with a Pico power supply and supplied with 12 volts from my lab power supply. The Pico power supply only draws about 1/2 an amp at 12 VDC when idling along running a GPS navigation application. The power input seems to peak at a little less than one amp when it runs full tilt during startup. I think the design is suppose to be a 10 watt TDP and I think it is very close to actually being that.
