Thought they might be, hence my suggestion. Don't have an A8V board my
self, But if you can load the SMP kernel variant on it, it should
support dual core cpu's. I thought I saw some body in a.o.l.s answer
you in the affirmitive. Is there some reason not to go with SUSE 10.0?
Or 9.3 even?

Don't know if this helps, but here goes. I loaded SUSE 10 on an A8N-E with
a single core 3200 with no problem.
I assume any linux distro should automatically load the SMP kernel upon
detection of any x86 multiprocessor architecture regardless of whether it is
dual-core or two or more independent CPUs.
One note of caution, though, if your dual booting, SUSE likes to overwrite
the MBR and locks a bit, so to restore it you have to get a MBR tool and
overwrite all the bits in the MBR to zero then run "fdisk /mbr".
