[LinuxBIOS] New in the list. Motherboard question.

[Guillaume Dualé]

Hi everybody,
I'm new in the list !

I would like to know if I can install Linux Bios in my mother board ?

I take a look at: http://linuxbios.org/Supported_Motherboards
and my motherboard is not in.

My motherboard is P5T30-B4 TEKRAM: http://www.otasc.org/motherboard.log

So, here: http://linuxbios.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices I see my 
chip is "supported" by LinuxBiosV1.

Vendor : Intel®
Northbridge: 430TX
Status: ? <-- Oops!
v2?: No

My quesiton is, "finally is my chipset supported ?"
And, can I install LinuxbiosV1 without problems ?

Thank you,
Guillaume.

Yes, probably (in LinuxBIOSv1), although I cannot say for sure.

No, your mainboard is not yet supported. But if you're interested in
working on this we can help...
