I had no troubles with installing Breezy (pre-release) on my machine
(except setting up raid 5 was a pain). It has been running stable for
the last month. The only hiccup has been that sound stopped working one
day adn I cannot figure out why.
I am currently running kernel 2.6.12-9-amd64-k8-smp and all is good.
Hardware is Tyan Thunder with 2x Opteron 270 and 16 Gb RAM.
I originally installed Fedora Core 4 and the install had problems with
the amount of memory. I had to tell it to assume 256 Mb during
install. However after installing and updating to kernel 2.6.12 it
worked fine.
I am really liking ubuntu although for some reason the installer only
installed a single processor kernel and I had to install the SMP kernel
manually. But apt-get is so good who cares?
Anyway all I need now is to install LTSP for i386.....
Cheers
Sean
