Pitr- Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 It's not exactly the best motherboard for the job. First of all, only one IDE-connector will work since the other is controlled by the unsupported ITE8211F-controller. The graphicscard is not supported and will run in VESA-framebuffer-mode which is fine if you don't mind having a bit of sluggish interface with no QuartzExtreme whatsoever, and lastly you can forget about SCSI. But if you're lucky you may be able to get sound working and also network will work out of box since it's the same marvel-based as in the macbooks. Firewire should also work without any problems.
