Installation issues / Re: ASUS M3A78-EM - Great for a Core, Great for an MD - Realtek 8168 Gigabit Solved!

I will be watching your progress closely, as I just purchased an ASUS M3A78-EM and A64 X2 6000+ for an HTPC.  While I'm not new to Linux, I have not used LinuxMCE yet.  From what I've looked at I think it would meet my needs well, provided I can get the full capabilities out of it.  I would want to use the onboard video and the HDMI output.  I also have a Sony Blu-Ray BDUX10S that I would like to use but I have to research compatibility.  My other option for OS if LinuxMCE does not pan out is Vista Premium (perhaps 64 bit), but saving $100 means another terabyte of storage or a nice case!

If I dig in and get anywhere with anything, I'll you know.
