That's too bad. I was just recently (last week) looking at this web page trying to find a newer motherboard to replace our Tyan h2000M boards to support the newer AMD Opteron CPUs, and was just lamenting to myself about how out-of-date it was. At the very least, it would be nice if there was a way to add server-class hardware to a "supported hardware" web page like this. It's such a pain going through all the info online about server chipsets and figuring out which are fully supported by FreeBSD (and Linux). -- Freddie Cash fjwc...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-amd64@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-amd64 To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-amd64-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
