[CentOS] 12V computing?

[Gordon McLellan]

Jason,

I don't see why the 32 bit version of centos would not run on that
hardware.   Despite the fancy processor name, it still has to work
with the i586 command set (at the worst).

There's no such thing as a "12 volt" computer... unless you're looking
at some sort of weird industrial setup.  That motherboard runs of a
standard ATX power supply just like any other beige/black box would.
You can buy special electronic power supplies which convert 12V dc to
the ATX standard, these are often used for putting a computer in a
car.  Search the mini-box site for "pico psu"
