similar to: First Gigabyte bios with virtualization support available

As a follow up to this post http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2007-07/msg00476.html I have ZenEnterprise 4.0.1 and Virtual Iron 3.7.2 running Windows guests on my GA M61P S3. To enable the AMD-V hardware virtualization capabilities on my Gigabyte motherboard: * install the Gigabyte bios version F2 dated Dec 2006 (download from Gigabyte support site) and expand out

All, I have an GigaByte motherboard GA-M61P-S3 and I was wondering if any kernel watchdog processes will work with that?

Hello list, I'm having problems with newest BIOS updates from Gigabyte to my Mother Boards, they don't want to boot syslinux, extlinux y usb-hdd mode. Then I need to know if someone else are having same problem, and can send me the Mother Board versions and bios versions to report as a bios bug. this is from the support, I'm awaiting for answer.

Hi Gang! I've got this (now old) Gigabyte motherboard (GA-7N400 Pro2), I've had it for just over 3 years. I use it, so far, with only PATA devices. I'm toying with the idea of buying a matched pair of SATA drives and when I install Centos 5 (hopefully soon), building it with software raid (using the two drives as mirrors of each other). Now, I wouldn't have ever even thought of

Hi, hpa: > The mkdiskimage tool in the Syslinux distribution exists for this reason.

It must actually have been your preparation of the USB stick which has chosen a FAT filesystem with CHS.

I read the mailing list archive about Gigabyte motherboards not working with USB booting ("[syslinux] Gigabyte recent bios & syslinux extlinux trow USB-IDE bridges or pendrives", 16 Aug 2006). I have a Gigabyte GA-MA790GP-DS4H motherboard that I tried to boot in USB-HDD mode with a PNY boot pen. I installed System Rescue CD on it. It would appear that Gigabyte still doesn't

I sometimes get errors of this form: Error: cannot allocate vector of size 13.8 Gb I've also seen "Gb" used in R documents. Is "Gb" being used to refer to gigabyte? We usually refer to bytes and gigabytes when discussing memory usage, but the lowercase "b" more often refers to bits. According to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte

Below is a kernel dump that I just got. This is a fresh new install of centos 5.1 on NVIDIA gigabyte MB-GA-M61P-S3. nothing extra has been added. I have not tried the irqpoll but I am surprised to get this. Also the machine keeps running just hod this show on the console... Any ideas???

Hello, I notice a bug in syslinux 6.01 ( bios version ) when I install it in a USB flash drive ( FAT32 partition ) and when I want to boot this USB flash drive with a gigabyte motherboard ( GA-P31-DS3L ), I setup my usb flash drive ( 4 Gb ) like this in windows XP : syslinux.exe -m -a -i -d /boot/syslinux H: then I create a syslinux.cfg menu and I add these files : chain.c32 libcom32.c32
