I am trying to install CentOS to a server that has a Tyan S2891 motherboard, 2 Opteron 875 Dual Cores and 2GB of RAM.
I've got a Tyan S2882-D with two dual-core Opteron 270s running CentOS 4 just fine -- but it's got the AMD-8111 chipset, not the nVidia CK804.
Since CentOS is based on stable/older code base, and Tyan S2891 is bleeding-edge-new, I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't work so well. My $0.02 ONLY, no 1st hand experience, YMMV, etc.
This is what I figured so I have tested with Fedora Core 4 installs.
Interesting to find that the 2.6.11 install kernel works but the latest 2.6.14 kernel has the same symptoms. I am scratching my head and firing up bugzilla.
