This is encouraging.  May I ask what has been your experience with this 
board besides the network and sound issues?  A dual core Atom cpu was 
announced recently available with the DG945GCLF2 motherboard; the L2 
cache has been raised to 1MB on each core.

I was thinking of trying different distros and plan to download the 
openSUSE LiveCD and CentOS LiveCD.

Will try this as well.

BTW, I have an external CD-DVD/ROM.  I removed the USB pen drive and 
tried booting from the LiveCD (Linux Mint 5r1) same problem.

I will also trying connecting a CDROM directly on the IDE port and see 
if the problem persists with LiveCDs.

Thanks.
