I got one, and work well with LinuxBIOS.

This is really great, thank you very much! The only thing I would point out is that GA-M57SLI-S4 is based on nForce 570-SLI as opposed to plain nForce 570. SLI allows having two NVIDIA graphic cards to work simultaneously and adds on about $25 to the cost of the motherboard. Unfortunately, SLI doesnt work well with Linux even with NVIDIAs closed source drivers. Not to mention that you have to buy two NVIDIA graphics cards to get any benefit from SLI even in Windows. So the extra $25 might not be worth it if you are going to run Linux.
Any chance you could port LinuxBIOS to a motherboard based on plain nForce 570 or nForce 590 without SLI?
Thanks,
Vlad
