Has anyone got any
hardware recommendations for AM2 motherboards that they've used
successfully with Xen?

I'm running on an Asus M2NPV-VM.

Which distribution and kernel version are you using?  I'm planning on using
SUSE 10.1.


I'm using SUSE 10.1 with updated kernel/xen packages from Factory (SUSE 10.2 Alpha).



I didn't know you could get PCI-E broadcom NICs, thanks for the heads up. Did you have to jump through any hoops to get it to work under Linux like
add options to kernel config file/patch kernel/etc?


It should work out of the box. There's no real difference between onboard and offboard nics, as far as Linux is concerned.
