Subject: [9fans] A note about AMD64 mainboards and Plan 9
Topicbox-Message-UUID: a4dabcca-eacd-11e9-9e20-41e7f4b1d025

For anyone thinking about running Plan 9 on an AMD64 mainboard, 
ensure that you don't purchase a mainboard with the VIA VT800 
chipset. The VIA VT800 chipset is not supported by Plan 9 at 
this time. Unless you plan to write a driver for it.

The AMD64 mainboards that have nForce3 150 chipset work well.

I just wanted to share my findings with others in attempt to
save you from the expensive mistakes that I have made.
