net drawback from 2007.0: |
| 42 |
* chipsets newer than 965P(i think), don't have PATA controller no |
| 43 |
more, PATA is supported through another controller 2007.0 doesn't know |
| 44 |
that so you can imagine the hassle here |
| 45 |
* new eth cards might not be supported so yet another hassle |
