I'm happy with this board, but had trouble because I tried to use it
with an older Debian installation.  In the end I found that you need
a recent kernel for the hard drives to be recognized and a recent grub
for the nvidia card to work properly.  "Recent" probably only means
within the past year or so, so if you are planning to install from scratch
you should be fine.
