[CentOS] Opteron Mobo Suggestions

[Peter Farrow]

I had trouble with Tyan boards and BIOS revisions not getting Processor 
numbers and speeds correct.
We also had early life failures with Asus boards, and since switched to 
MSI, we now use the MSI 9161

K8D Master 3 
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/server/svr/pro_svr_detail.php?UID=560

 without any problems..
