RE: How much space needed for a web server install?

[Scott Stone <SStone@example.com>]

However, if you'll notice, this board doesn't use a KT133 or KT133A chipset,
it uses an AMD761 chipset (the AMD-made DDR chipset) :)

The VIA Southbridge is supposed to have some problems though.
Under high pci bus load, the ide interface may corrupt your hard drive...

VIA has aknowledged the Problem and states that this
problem is limited to boards which use the AMD KT133 or KT133A chipset and
the
VIA 686B Southbridge and additionally a PCI Soundcard.

The only real solution to the Problem seems to be to disable the onboard IDE
Controller and use a PCI IDE adapter card.
