I have an EN12000eg machine, running 6.2 on it. At the start however i had some crappy fake-raid card installed. If any disks were attached to it the boot would just hang. (Don't remember exactly but i think it died already in the bootloader)
I think i have turned off the SW raid built into the board. no memory as to if that affected the machine however. A small note also, check that the bios reports the same amount of memory that you have installed. If it's halved then there's a bug in the chipsets that made atleast my board to use half the memory if the stick had chips with 128MB on it. If you can get a stick with 64MB chips it'll work. See www.mini-itx.com for a hopefully better description :) I'm quite happy with it now. using gmirror, 2x 3.5" disks and a silent machine that only uses 49 watts. / Jonas Lund 2008/5/19, Walter C.
