I am looking for a motherboard recommendation with the following features:
* at least one Slot-1 or PGA370 CPU socket, that I can put a VIA C5P Nehemiah CPU in it (PGA370 version), however I would prefer Slot-1 mainboard for easier mounting of the heatsink away from the motherboard, without risk of damaging the motherboard while mounting the heatsink (I damaged one motherboard while doing this on a PGA socket)
* at least 5 PCI slots, at least PCI 2.0, faster versions welcome
* at least 1 ISA slot
* support 200 MHz FSB
* support DDR400 RAM in 1 GB DIMM modules - if that requires some LinuxBIOS hacking that's OK, I just want to avoid a a motherboard with something that definetly rules out 1 GB sticks because of some not-to-circumvent hardware limitations; I would appreciate 4 DIMM slots to fit 4 GB of RAM, however 3 GB will also be OK, and 2 slots will do if there is a chance of fillting future 2 GB DIMM sticks in them
* a chipset which is at least been supported in any version of LinuxBIOS, may be v1, which gives a chance to be supported in v2 after some hacking, I just want to avoid chipsets which never ever been supported, and has no available docs, giving no chance for support; the motherboard as a whole doesn't have to be supported, I am willing to do some minor hacking to fix some glitches, just not write support for a completely new chipset. So Intel BX and LX are OK I think. Any other PGA370 chipsets ever been supported by LinuxBIOS? Any VIA stuff used in non-EPIA, but ATX motherboards with sockets?
* USB 2.0 sockets welcome
Any chance to meet all or almost all of these requirements? i just need 1 piece, so it may be of course an out-of-production motherboard, even a rare one, that there is a chance of getting after several weeks of hunting on eBay.
