I've been using this disk for data storage for approximately the last year
or so, but it's possible. The Linux partition on the disk has data on it,
and I'm able to read/write on it. (Last time I checked). Found some
information:

Intel Corporation 82845G/GL/GV/GE/PE DRAM Controller / Host - Hub I/F Bridge
Display is VGA 82845G/GL/GV/GE/PE Integrated Graphics Device

Then there're the 4 or 5 USB controllers, Hub interface to PCI Bridge, LPC
Interface Bridge etc. I will try installation with another disk in a couple
of hours.
