If you have a mobo that you'd recommend for use with gentoo-amd64, could
you please let me know?

I've been very happy with both nforce 3 nforce 4 MSI motherboards.
I've built some graphics clusters with them, and a number of
workstations, no problems as of yet. You will need some sort of video
card, but there are a number of cheap ones that would work fine. A

Hey James,
I am running all Gentoo AMD 64 in my business and am very happy with the
price/performance. I have had very good experiences with Tyan's AMD
Opteron mother boards. I have a GX-28 rack-mount server as well as 8
boxes based on the Tyan S2895 mobo, all running SMP. Here's what does

I use the forcedeth driver without any trouble... well, until the
ethernet hardware on the motherboard inexplicably stopped working. But I
don't believe that was the driver's fault.

Well, it looks like I was able to answer my own question, apparently
hdparm doesn't do much in the way of SATA tunning because of the driver
the kernel now uses to run SATA is the SCSI driver.

Hi all,
The subject says it all. I'm currently running with amd64 as my arch, but I
would like to upgrade to ~amd64. How straightforward is this to do on a

doing the upgrade? I'll bet it isn't which is why I'm asking

Yeah, it probably isn't much different from doing that. I run a sort
of mixed environment - ~amd64 where I need it, along with ~x86
sometimes, and then amd64 everywhere else.
I question whether you should look at it as an 'upgrade' though. I
don't. I consider it sort of a 'side grade'. It's not
