Do you think that this kit is likely to work with Rev1 or am I likely to need to wait for rev 2. as if rev 1 is likely to work I'll get that and get it going, and then upgrade to rev2 when it comes out, if not, then I'll be waiting and itching to give rev2 a go as soon as its upped somewhere.

ok, in that case I'll stop on the rev1 disk, and on the front of rev 2, any ideas if it is likely to work?
Shame, as I did have an A8N5X until the thing broke and they didn't stock it anymore
Seems from what I can see on the osx86wiki (and its only listed in the HCL for 10.4.3 so far) it doesn't work then, that it still doesn't seem to work now, would have been nice to get it running, might be stuck trying to get this running on my laptop then, tiger supposedly does, and from the looks of it leopard should as well but not had much success so far.
Yeah I've looked around a bit and seen some report of older tiger installs working, but slow pata / sata issues (but, thats not necessarily a problem, I have access to a usb drive that I could get it on and I'm fairly sure I can make the system boot from it) just waiting for the rev1 iso to finish and then I can try out tomorrow night when I'm back at uni
