I was poking around in my BIOS this morning and rediscovered a setting to define the installed OS. I'd wondered about it some time ago and then forgotten about it.
I can set the BIOS setting "OS Installation" to "Other" or to "64bit Linux 2.6.9". I have it set to Other at the moment. My questions are: what effect this setting is likely to have, and whether it's really specific to the version. This is a Supermicro H8DCE motherboard with dual Opteron 246s and 4GB RAM in four banks, two connected to each CPU. I've tried Google but found nothing. -- Rgds Peter -- gentoo-amd64@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
