Hello Jon! I have an Abit BP6 Mobo running Redhat 6.1 with no problems. I
am running 2 400 Celeries running at 550 with no problems with RH 6.1. Its
a great motherboard. For the price and for SMP power! Go to
www.ars-technica.com and click on arsawards at the bottom right part of the
website. Theres a lot of information regarding Linux and the Abit BP6. Or
go to www.bp6.com and post a question at their forum and see it helps you
determine if you want this MoBo or not. Its the best MoBo so far I have
ever had. =)
John
