My other questions revolve around motherboards. At present I lean toward a socket 939 board and it seems like a lot of them have embedded LAN, IEEE-1394, sound and even RAID controllers. I've done some googling but not really been able to determine which boards have 64 bit support for most or all of the embedded peripherals. (I don't really care about the built in Winmodem. ;) At a minimum I'd like to avoid anything that is likely to never have a driver due to current vendor disclosure policies. I'd like to hear recommendations for particular boards that are either known to work well (or not.) I'll also listen arguments to consider other socket type AMD 64 bit processors. Select Opteron and allow for the possibility to add a second processor? (Though this is probably stretching the charter of this list a bit.)
You can always refer to the amd64 motherboard compatibility list here: https://alioth.debian.org/docman/view.php/30192/27/mainboards.html.
If you choose one of those I would say that a 64bit install with a 32 chroot has a very high probability to work (did for me).
