I have that Board now for a few days and it works perfectly.
128MB RAM, Dawicontrol SCSI Controller, 4GB hd and CD-Rom.

Interesting is, that the system is working with the same
configuration as before I changed Motherboard, CPU, RAM and
SCSI controller. All I had to do was compile a new kernel.

What does not work is the APM, I get a general protection
error when halting.
