I just recently installed a G33 based board with centos-5 (x86_64). If the board has an ich9r the sata part it easy (use ahci in bios). My install hanged unless I passed acpi=off or pci=nommconf (the latter the real fix). After install I had to build my own e1000 from the intel page to get the onboard GigE to work and pci=nommconf is still needed (but does not cause any negative side effects that I know of). All this for an Intel DG33TL board. Good luck, Peter -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
