PII mainboard??

[vdg]

..I know..I know..PII is old and a slow..and all the bad stuff, but I have everything else to build a PII system(for a Linus system) and I just need a mainboard and some memmory

So, any recomendations for a cheap(but stable in Linux) mobo that supports PII 233 slot1 and 168pin memmory(because is so cheap this memory) . Can I use PC100 in a 66 MHZ system?

Asus P3B or P2B.

Yes you can use PC100. It will run at 66 though

Yes, you can use PC100 in a 66 MHz system. If you follow SCSIRAID's suggestion, the P3B is designed to run at 100 MHz, but you can put the CPU at 66 MHz while you keep the RAM at 100 MHz. If you look at Axion Technologies they have a selection of boards based on the 440BX which was a highly repected chipset designed for the Pentium II.

Look at it this way, at least you get the last Good chipset from intel, the 440BX
