Hello hardware people,
I have my eye on the Tyan Tiger K8W S2875 dual Opteron motherboard[1]
on which I intend to run Slackware.
I am unsure about which type of CPUs to get and also whether I can run
it with just one CPU and buy a second one later. And if I do that, do
they need to be identical?
In general, since I have never used a dual CPU board before, is there
anything I should be careful about? Or do I proceed using Slackware
per usual?
If anyone has any experience running this board with any Linux
distribution I would appreciate any comments you may have.
Thank you,
Peter
