I am about to assemble a pc and plan to use it knoppix/linux exclusive.
I tried Google search for suitable motherboards but most if not all list pentium III based which I believe are no longer available.Search also states that linux would work on all pentium 4 cpu but what motherboard?
I do not want to get an exotic motherboard only to discover that it is not linux compatible. This is a big drawback for linux- almost all motherboards are tested using windows(drystone,quake,sandra,etc). I have yet to see a motherboard that says "linux compatible" or similar marking.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
