I've been trying to flash the bios and think I have an approach I can make work: to wit ... boot into dos 6.22 off the cd and then pick up the bios flash data off a usb-stick. Sometime in the near future I think a D525MW is the way to go. Meanwhile, I also have a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3L board here. 2.6G dual core on a larger board. Memtest86 will run on it and all 4 G of memory is good. Still a live install stalls consistently at 42%. Video is a GeForce 8400GS which may be the problem. It happens to be the only pci-extended x16 video I have so it is difficult to swap out. ;-) Hmmmm! E5300 cpu is 64 bit but so is the 510 and 525 am I missing something? Can anyone recommend a video card that plays well with 10.04, etc? I'm leaning toward ATI. BTW- I have burned two CD's of 10.04 both downloaded from the .ro mirror. First one took about 30 min to download and the second a whole 6 min; now that was impressive! Load on the server must have been really low. Md5sum on both are identical and match the md5sum listed on linuxcnc.org. Nuff blithering for one e-mail.
