Ok.
I've got the ATX version of this board. You MUST set the jumpers correctly
for your memory speed. Also, ensure that (if its a K6-2-300 and you are
running 100Mhz bus speed) that your RAM is PC-100 stuff. I'm running my
board with a Cyrix/IBM M2-300 and its running without a hitch - it's a great
board !
It could be (i'm not sure) that the Unknown PCI device is the AGP port (I
don't think that Linux supports this yet - dqmot).
Try these and see what happens.
