Hello,

I am putting together a box to run, in dual boot mode, both LINUX and
FreeBSD on their own dedicated & independent hard drives. At least that
is my desire.
 The architecture is

Shuttle AI61 Motherboard - Standard ATX form factor motherboard
AMD Athlon 900MHz Processor Slot A

     3 - DIMM Slots for Memory         w/  512 Mb
     5 - PCI Slots
     0 - ISA Slot
      1 - AGP Slot
     1 - PS/2 for mouse, 1 - PS/2 for keyboard
     UltraDMA-66 EIDE Controllers.
     AMD 751 & 756 Chipset
     1 - Parallel port
     2 - Serial ports

2 - Maxtor 40 Gb drives
300 W power supply - Mid tower Box
Creative Labs 128-Voice PCI Sound Card

Other features to be negotiated.
Box to be networked w/ another, using  Linksys 10BaseT hub & network
cards.

Does anyone have any insight if there might be any problems running
FreeBSD w/ this config.

Thanks.
