The last nibble of the address is always zero, and the next nibble is always even. The new mobo is nforce2 based, a Biostar M7NCD-PRO, and will have a gig of memory. Is there a way to prebuild a kernel that will run on both boards?, this older board is a VIA82686/VIA8233 based board, a Biostar M7VIB. I don't run an initrd normally. -- Cheers, Gene There are 4 boxes to be used in defense of liberty. Soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
