main thing when buying a board is you want the iommu support to be compatible with qubes. There really is no way to tell besides HCL list to be 100% sure. Other then that the best way is to look in the manual for picture of the bios settings showing the vt-d feature as available with supported intel cpu, (not greyed otu or unavailable) or even better if its shown enabled. You also might want to make sure the bios support legacy boot and board has a ps/2 kb port. another thing I would highly recommend is before buying the board search it on linux forums and see if people have any compatibly problems with it or not. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
